Mounting Solaris 2.6 Samba share on Solaris 2.6 Client
I am running Samba 2.0.4b on a Solaris 2.6 server, SERVER. I have made available a few shares I would like to mount on another Solaris 2.6 machine, CLIENT. I have successfully mounted said SERVER share on a Linux client on the same subnet, so I believe the server is set up correctly. My problem is that, while on Linux, I execute something like 'mount -t smbfs...', what do I say on Solaris, 'mount -F ufs...?' I haven't been able to figure that out. bash-2.02# hostname CLIENT bash-2.02# ls -ld /usr/local drwxr-xr-x 2 root other 512 Jul 20 1999 /usr/local bash-2.02# mount -F smbfs //SERVER/local /usr/local mount: operation not applicable to FSType smbfs bash-2.02# mount -F ufs //SERVER/local /usr/local mount: //SERVER/local or /usr/local, no such file or directory Any help that can be offered will be appreciated. Thanks. - C

The obvious (though not the only) way to share a filesystem between Unix computers is NFS. Sun, who *invented* NFS, supports it quite well. Peter
