Have a read of the first post here;

It's constantly updated (last update a week ago) and is pretty simple to follow
could do it with samba I think but better to do with NFS.

box hasnt got samba on it, nor does it have a net connection.
does have nfs tho as nfs at prompt gives me
# nfs
Usage: /etc/nfs {start | stop }
Its SCO openserver 5.something if thats any help..
I suppose its possible to reconfigure the network card so its got gateway etc addresses so I can get it on the net..
I think you need to use the mount command to mount the share

have I got this right... You have a windows server and you want to mount a windows shared drive on the server on the linux box? Windows (AFAIK) doesn't natively support NFS so you will need an NFS server app on the windows box, but it would probably be easier to install a samba client on the Unix box and use that.

If your client has autofs then that should mount a previously mounted FS automatically, otherwise you may need a simple start up script to execute the mount command.

If you install "file and print services for unix" into windows it does support NFS![]()

In that case, is it not just a matter of setting setting up an entry in /etc/fstab to mount the 'exported' filestore? (or am I really missing something....?)
192.168.1.22:/public /mnt/music nfs auto,user, 0 0
.s the entry in my fstab file to automount an NFS share from another (in this case linux) system
