Re: Is anybody sending objects to a Sharepoint server?

Anonymous access can be set up - with limits on which IP addresses are granted access to the NFS server - or you can set up users and passwords. Here is our wiki article on doing this in Windows - we also have articles on setting up NFS in Linux, IIRC.

http://wiki.rjssoftware.com/wiki/index.php/NFS_File_Sharing_on_a_Windows_Server_via_Windows_Services_for_Unix_Version_3.5

The article is pointed at use with our WebDocs product and mentions our DOCMOUNT command, which basically runs the system MOUNT command - see the article I sent to Paul for the settings our DOCMOUNT command uses.

I'm not at all disagreeing,... just curious. I haven't run into an
NFS setup for Windows that didn't have user/password requirements.
Most especially when communications crossed what used to be called
'trusted domains' or whatever that deal was, I saw little but
trouble with NFS plus Windows. Of course, I haven't yet used an NFS
server direct from Microsoft, so maybe that explains it.

How is it secured? I.e., how is the user/password kept secure?
