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

smbd

smbd(1M)						  System Administration Commands						  smbd(1M)

NAME

       smbd - CIFS server daemon

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/smbsrv/smbd

DESCRIPTION

       The  smbd  daemon  handles  CIFS/SMB requests from CIFS clients, such as Windows clients. Only processes with {PRIV_SYS_SMB} and sufficient
       privileges to write the /var/run directory can run this daemon.

       The smbd daemon is automatically invoked by using the sharemgr command over all available transports. By default, smbd starts over the Net-
       BIOS-Over-TCP (NBT) and TCP transports.

       When smbd is started over NBT, the following services are started:

	   o	  The NetBIOS name service is started on UDP port 137.

	   o	  The NetBIOS datagram service is started on UDP port 138.

	   o	  The NetBIOS session service is started on TCP port 139.

       When the smbd daemon is started over TCP, the CIFS service is started on TCP port 445.

       Only one instance of smbd may be running at a time.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	    Daemon exited cleanly.

       95	    Daemon exited with a fatal error.

       96	    Daemon exited with a configuration error.

ATTRIBUTES

       See the attributes(5) man page for descriptions of the following attributes:

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE	     |	    ATTRIBUTE VALUE	   |

       |Availability		     |SUNWsmbsu 		   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+

NOTES

       Use  the  svcadm command to perform administrative actions on the smbd service, such as enabling, disabling, or restarting the service. Use
       the svcs command to query the service status.

       The smbd service is managed by the service management facility under the service identifier svc:/network/smb/server.

       If the smbd service is disabled, it will be enabled by the sharemgr(1M) command,  unless its auto_enable  property is set to false.
