RE: Microsoft Services for Unix

[King, Michael A]

Title: Microsoft Services for Unix

There are various options you can use to resolve this.

 

It all depends on what method of authentication you need. Unix or NT accounts.

 

Samba for Unix will allow you to make NT shares on Unix but authenticated against a NT domain. try www.samba.org

 

There are other services which create a NFS share under NT but this is less secure that the NT authentication model. Microsoft Unix Services is one but there are also other vendors such as hummingbird http://www.hummingbird.com/

 

Hope this helps

Can someone please shed some light on the above?

Ideally, where can it be obtained from? (believe me, I've searched the M$ website)

I am specifically looking to provide NFS shares on a NT 4.0 Server, although if need be I'll use 2000 Server. 

Thanks,
