Hello, We have been successfully using Samba to access Unix filesystems on Windows computers. So far we only had SGI IRIX computers and very few Windows computers. Recently we have started adding Windows clients to the network and now we wish to do the reverse i.e. access Windows shared areas from SGI computers, mainly for backup purposes. We are using Networker to take automated backups. We have read the 'smbclient' usage and we could use this to create tar files to be backed up in SGI. However it is difficult to estimate how much time it will take to do this regularly and to schedule the automated backup correctly. >From the Samba book, we see that there is 'smbmount' but this in only available on Linux. Is there any utility which could be used to mount on the SGI IRIX platform. Thanks. Regards, Shailesh Saraph Engineering Automation Group TATA Technologies Ltd.
