MaxOSX is built on Darwin which largely comes from FreeBSD. We used to run Unidata on Tru64 UNIX. If I remember correctly, Tru64 was a free BSD variant. Could be wrong though. If it is, then it should be easy to port to the MAC OS. Charles Shaffer Senior Analyst NTN-Bower Corporation

you didn't say what the O/S of the systems are. If you are running unix on both machines, you need to setup one machine as an NFS server, and the other as an NFS Client. Both are fairly simple. basically, you are updating /etc/fstab for the Client side and /etc/exports , /etc/hosts.allow

Our configuration is like this: Server A (Windows Server 2003, 32-bit) - the host server with programs. Server B (Windows Server 2008, 64-bit) - the production server, need to point to Server A only for a cpl programs. I've never setup an NFS but what we're doing is really basic, we have 3

Since your running windows, Can you map a drive to the other servers Folder containing the programs. Then just setup a VOC entry pointing to the mapped drive. Don't use NFS, just use windows SMB protocols. As long as they are both setup with workgroup names the same you should be ok.

We can map the drives from one server to the other. Let's call the drive on Server A drive (Z:\). I assume we would still need UVnet to do this solution. If we did map a drive what would the VOC pointer look like? This is an example what one of my VOC pointers looks like now:

You would need to create a new VOC entry that referenced the other drive. ie x:pathname\LFUTILS.O/TEST_HARNESS2 You could copy the VOC entry, and and prefix the drive, but your example used a relative path (..) which I have not used on our system, I've always used full pathnames unless the file

I was able to run object code on Server A from Server B by using universal path name in the VOC as follows: \\server name\CHRISSYS\LFUTILS.O/TEST_HARNESS2 .\CHRISSYS\LFUTILS.O/TEST_HARNESS2 **old VOC** So that takes care of running the source code from 1 server to the other. Now the
