WinSCP could be worth a try as well.

Do Solaris 10 updates have samba under SMF control?

If you did a full install of Solaris 10, you'll have Samba under SMF
control; if you had previously installed Samba separately (prior to
upgrading to Solaris 10), you'll have both. |

Hi all,

I can install on the PCs to make them grok NFS?

TIA,
I had great succuss using pc/nfs. I used the Sun package (this was about
10 yerars ago) and it worked seamlessly. The data showed up as just
another drive. I have not used Samba, and have not looked at anything
along those lines for a good 7 years (I have been disabled, and am now
just getting back into work). I believe that there are mutiple vendors
who sell NFS for the pc.

The choices are slim these days. As for products that actually work and
don't look like some 16 bit turbo pascal app, it's just WRQ's Reflection
NFS. Sun dropped their NFS client for windows years ago, after changing
the name 600 times, sun style. |

Surprised no-one suggested PC-Netlink, Sun's own product. I find it
very OK, better than Samba which I have to say confuses the hell out of
me.
Basically turns your Sun server into a Windows box like Samba but with
better mamangement tools than Sambads SWAT.
In fact, I'm tempted to fish my copy out and install it, despite being
a PC free zone, unless Ultra 20 counts as a PC, which it does, hell
fire.....

It's hard enough to teach some of them how to use "drag & drop" to copy
files over the network.
I also have Samba running on Solaris 10 x86 and Linux servers at an
ISP's office which do not have any print services. If you want the
smb.conf files for those let me know.

WHat a shame Cygwin doesn't include an NFS client!

At least Cygwin is free; better than spending $$$ on Exceed.

|
There are at least 200,000 other reasons for not using their shitware.
But Samba does work well as a file server and is a valuable addition to
your toolbox.

Samba is relatively easy to configure and works quite well. This is what
I use on a Solaris 9 x86 server for /etc/sfw/smb.conf:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
# Global parameters
[global]
server string = Samba Server
workgroup = WORKGROUP
interfaces = iprb0 192.168.0.6/24
encrypt passwords = Yes
log file = /var/log/smbd.%m
max log size = 50
time server = Yes
printcap name = /etc/printcap
os level = 65
preferred master = True
domain master = True
hosts allow = 192.168.0.
printing = lprng
print command = /usr/sfw/bin/lpr -Praw %s
lpq command = /usr/sfw/bin/lpq -Praw
lprm command = /usr/sfw/bin/lprm -Praw %j
lppause command = /usr/sfw/sbin/lpc hold raw %j
lpresume command = /usr/sfw/sbin/lpc release raw %j
queuepause command = /usr/sfw/sbin/lpc -Praw stop
queueresume command = /usr/sfw/sbin/lpc -Praw start
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
read only = No
[save]
path = /save/save
read only = No
[save1]
path=/save1
read only = No
[printers]
comment = HP DeskJet 812C
path = /var/spool/samba
printer admin = admin, @staff
printable = Yes
printer name = raw
browseable = No
[hp]
comment = HP DeskJet 812C
path = /var/spool/samba
printer admin = admin, @staff
read only = No
printable = Yes
printer name = raw
# oplocks = No
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note that this is also a network print server; you can reduce its
complexity easily.

Hi all,
I have a requirement to access some data (just docs) that is stored
on a Solaris 10 6/06 server from Windoze. I guess I could mess about
trying to grok Samba, but is there anything, preferably free, that
I can install on the PCs to make them grok NFS?
