It works fine for me with NFS and smbfs - kernel 2.6.7 connecting to SCO
OpenServer 5.0.5 and Windows NT 4.0, using Apache 2.0.4something. 

I did have to modify Apache so that it wouldn't try to use sendfile(),
because it didn't recover gracefully from failure and those filesystems
don't support it. IIRC this wasn't an issue under kernel 2.4 due to lack
of sendfile() support.
