Not really, no.
I would be more surprised if it did work. NFS has a reputation of
being insecure.
I am not aware of any organisations, big/small, that use NFS any more
except on restricted sets of computers.

Er, here. Global NFS home directories. And at the last place I
worked. And the place before that. Oh, actually, in every single
place I've worked for the past 10 years.
I suppose you could claim the set of machines running NFS is
restricted in that it's behind a firewall, but that's the only sense.
