RDP access from UNIX.

Hi,

How can I access remote desktop shared area from Unix.

Like on Windows in Run we use
//IP/address

Is there any similar command on Unix. I am using HP-UX. Basically I need to transfer a file to Windows from Unix using a shell script. Quick response will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Dont think it works directly like that. But this is possible if the unix host runs samba. Also If the shared dir is part of an NFS mount, Windows 7 seems to have an NFS client.

Thanks for the response. There are no utilities installed on Unix like samba and I don't have privileges to install anything on system. It would be great if some command could do the same functioning. I have searched on internet but found nothing useful.

Then the only thing that I can think about is ftp / sftp / scp.

Thanks Rajamadhavan. FTP looks to be the solution for this. However I am not clear how to do that. How can I see NFS clients name?
Like to connect with remote machine we give -- ftp ftp.example.com
From where can I see remote machine name for instance in the above example it is "ftp.example.com"

you can also use ip address with ftp
Code:
ftp x.x.x.x

if you want to find the hostname, you can try "nslookup ip-address"
