NFS [& AMD] [& SSH] would be ideal for me.

I had a look on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3, with Android 4.4.2 kernel
3.4.0, & skimmed index of the 182 page pdf, but I dont know how to
tell if mine has NFS ? Or how to get it.
I get no umass & /dev/da* I probably need to tweak my android somehow.

For Per who wrote "For tethering I have no idea, sorry." I have usb
tethering working :-) if you want it too, see below.
My android browser over USB does read from httpd on my FreeBSD :-)

Thank to all who have contributed info & URLS etc.  Collated at:

Corrections, additions etc welcome.

Cheers,
Julian
