netfs is a tool for handling mounts & dismounts for network filesystems (NFS, NPS, SAMBA, CIFS etc.).

If you mean producinf netflow data this might be handy on linux:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ipt-netflow

http://www.inmon.com/technology/sflowTools.php
is capable of capturing sflow data and process it.

Hi harbor235,
I have recompiled the nfdump and netfs and now it has created the directory /usr/local/bin/sfcapd. I have not tested to create any export flow and have some more doubt regarding nfsen for which I am going to open new thread.
Thanks for your support.

Take a look at flow-tools, not sure it supports sflow but is a great tools. What type of network gear are you using ? Juniper supports netflow as well, in the Juniper configuration netflow is called cflowd.
