Hello, Does anyone on this list know of any utilities that enables mapping windows folder onto Unix machine? I am going to do the migration of our intranet site from IIS to Apache in Linux. As the intranet content is over 15Gig, I need to migrate in a phase wise manner. So if I can run web server on linux serving the files from the old intranet box, this would help. Any ideas are welcome. Thanks, Kailash
Hi,
look at apache for your web server http://www.apache.org
To map windows dir to linux you need to share the directory and use smbmount
(part of samba)
Some docs to help you http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/smbmount.8.html
cheers

Then cp from /mnt/...windowsshares... to /home/users... It worked perfectly. :-) Is that an answer? In Debian environment, just apt-get smbfs, then update your /etc/fstab, putting line like: \\SERVER\usershare /mnt/server/usershare smbfs 0 0 # apt-cache search smbfs smbfs - mount and umount commands for the smbfs (for kernels >= than 2.2.x) -- Jean-Paul ARGUDO
