How Can I Access A Network Shared (nfs) Linux Partition On My Windows Machine?

One way to do it is install a linux virtual machine on my windows (using vmware/vpc) and use it to mount the NFS partition. Will it work? Is there any other way? Some other software.

    First, you can try Start->Run and enter //servername
    Do you have admin access to the Linux machine? You could install a Samba server to it and mount it from there.

    Yes, use Samba on your Linux server and share the file system with it.
    There are application suites that allow you to mount NFS shares, but they are pricey and unreliable. Samba is the answer.
