No NFS available, just SMB

No big deal - assuming you have an NFS server to talk to - and that
can be Linux or Unix or Windows with the proper free service
installed. Here is a link to our Wiki site that explains mounting an
NFS share into the IFS

http://wiki.rjssoftware.com/wiki/index.php/Creating_and_Mounting_NFS_File_Se
rver_Shares_from_the_AS/400

The article is centered on using NFS with our WebDocs product, but it
is generally applicable.

Is there something special required to configure NFS on the System i?

When I type wrklnk '/QNTC' I see the QNTC directory immediately. When I put
a 5 to display the contents, nothing happens except input inhibited. I left
one request going for 20 minutes before I killed the session. Sys req 2
didn't even work. I had to kill the job and disconnect my session.

We generally find QNTC to be a horrible way to connect to a Windows
box - there is some environment variable that can limit the endless
search for compatible hosts on your network, however - not sure of
the name - netserver docs at the software KB at IBM might help

We highly recommend NFS if it's available - none of the requirements
for matching user ids and passwords as QNTC has - so if the
Sharepoint server can handle NFS, it's the bomb - the NFS server is
free from Microsoft.

There are also other ways to bypass Netserver - use a direct Samba
connection - Richard uses a Java one, I think. It also does not have
the requirement for matching IDs, etc., and it does not do the
intense discovery nonsense - sorry - that is just overkill like nothing
else.

I'd like to be able to send output from my application to one of these
systems without a user receiving a document and posting it manually? I'd
like to know if any of you have one of these boxes configured via QNTC,
and
exactly how you did it.

I think I have netserver configured correctly, and I have shared QNTC,
but
both wrklnk and iSeries Navigator go into never-never land when I try to
drill deeper. This is happening both with a security id and with an id
that
is set up on both machines.

Any ideas?
