Sharing Windows Folder on Solaris
Hi All,

I am wanting so share a windows folder on our Solaris computer. I am wanting to be able to save files to this folder directly on Windows. This will keep me from saving a file locally and FTPing to the windows HD.

Currently, I am trying to get "services for Unix Administration" to work on the windows pc. I am having trouble setting up a new client group as I do not have an option to enter the ip address. I feel I am missing something elementary. Could someone point me in the right direction, or is there other way that is easier to share windows folders on solaris. I work in a hospital and this will make our time so much more efficient if we can figure this out.

Thanks!

Google Samba

Installed on a solaris server, you can share out your stated filesystem to domain / pc's

Samba is very capable, tunable and reasonbly secure.
