Have you seen Jonathan Harston's SoftMDFS?

<quote>
!SoftMDFS provides a network fileserver with the
functionality of the SJ Research MDFS server.

Double-clicking on !SoftMDFS starts the server with
default settings.  These can be altered by editing
!SoftMDFS.!Run.

The core of the program is based on Alan William's
awServer.

Find this and lots of other fileserver related goodies at:
http://mdfs.net/Apps/Networking/FServers/

I saw this running on (an A4000 on) his stand at the Wakefield show a 
few years ago and IMHO it looked pretty good.

Have fun,
Jon Ripley
