Operating Systems HP-UX File sharing between HP-UX 9 & W2K/XP Post 302672705 by GoldnPantaloons on Monday 16th of July 2012 09:24:53 PM

File sharing between HP-UX 9 & W2K/XP

My company has several HP Model 715/100 machines running HP-UX 9 , that can't really be upgraded due to compatibility issues with some equipment it's tied to. Each UX box mounts a directory off of a Windows NT4 machine acting as an NFS server (using DiskShare Server 3 and 4), and as we upgrade the rest of our network these NT4 boxes are becoming a major pain in the ass to integrate. My goal is to get these PCs updated to XP, W2K at the very least, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to share a Windows directory via NFS in either of those OSes. I've mirrored the configuration of the NT4 machines, but mounting always times out in UX.

Does anyone have any experience with this kind of scenario? I'm finding very little documentation on HP-UX 9, and what I have found talks about NFS and is generally unhelpful. I've considered CIFS, but I'm not sure 9 even supports it...

Thoughts?

SHOWMOUNT(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					      SHOWMOUNT(8)

NAME
showmount -- show remote nfs mounts on host SYNOPSIS
showmount [-a | -d] [-e] [-1] [-3] [host] DESCRIPTION
The showmount utility shows status information about the NFS server on host. By default it prints the names of all hosts that have NFS file systems mounted on the host. See NFS: Network File System Protocol Specification, RFC 1094, Appendix A, and NFS: Network File System Version 3 Protocol Specification, Appendix I, for a detailed description of the protocol. The following options are available: -a List all mount points in the form: host:dirpath. -d List directory paths of mount points instead of hosts. -e Show the host's exports list. -1 Use mount protocol Version 1, compatible with legacy servers. -3 Ignored for backwards compatibility. SEE ALSO
mount(8), mount_nfs(8), mountd(8) HISTORY
The showmount utility first appeared in 4.4BSD. BUGS
The mount daemon running on the server only has an idea of the actual mounts, since the NFS server is stateless. The showmount utility will only display the information as accurately as the mount daemon reports it. BSD
