Full Discussion: Windows network share visible to Solaris 9 host and vice versa

Windows network share visible to Solaris 9 host and vice versa
Hi,

I have a Windows server running WinSVR 2008R2 with a network share configured \\hostname\JSS_Share I would like to be able to mount this share on a Solaris host running Solaris 9. I would also like to mount a directory on the Solaris host and make it visible to the Windows server.
The idea behind this is to be able to view and copy files from Solaris to Windows and Windows to Solaris via the mount points. I have samba running the Solaris host:

Code:
 
[root@qwicdev /etc/sfw]# /usr/sfw/sbin/smbd -V
Version 3.0.35

[root@qwicdev /etc/sfw]# ps -ef | grep smbd
    root 17593     1  0 10:32:36 ?        0:00 /usr/sfw/sbin/smbd -D
    root 27046 12889  0 11:24:07 pts/8    0:00 grep smbd
    root 17597 17593  0 10:32:36 ?        0:00 /usr/sfw/sbin/smbd -D

[root@qwicdev /etc/sfw]# pkginfo | grep samba
system      SUNWsmbac                        samba - A Windows SMB/CIFS fileserver for UNIX (client)
system      SUNWsmbar                        samba - A Windows SMB/CIFS fileserver for UNIX (Root)
system      SUNWsmbau                        samba - A Windows SMB/CIFS fileserver for UNIX (Usr)

Can anyone please prove the steps required to configure samba to allow the above to work and how I would mount the share/directory.

Or is there a better way to make this happen.

Thanks
