Well, it's a really roundabout insecure way to do it, but you might
be able to get away with sharing it via samba, mounting it on the server
and then exporting that mount via NFS.... (samba client and server and nfs
server all running on same machine).
It might work... Actually, you can save some security hassle by making
the samba service listen on the loopback address only (127.0.0.1)... but
then, every block of data has to go through that many more layers before
getting where it belongs...
