Justin,

You could do it the opposite way as well, have the windows server mount onto
the IBM i.

All the same security stuff for the users has to be in place but that would
not mean setting up NFS on the windoze server since that seems to be an
anthemia to the windows guys.

That sounds like what I had in mind. Unfortunately, the Windows server is
also my problem, so I'll have to figure out how to install NFS.

I assume the MOUNT has to be ran during IPL?

NFS?

Have them export a share. And then you MOUNT this share over a dummy
directory.

For example on one IBM i I export a share then on another IBM i I mount it
using:
MOUNT TYPE(*NFS) MFS('gdihq:/tmp') +
MNTOVRDIR('/gdihq/tmp') +
OPTIONS('rw,suid,retry=5,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,+
timeo=20,retrans=5,acregmin=30,acregmax=60,acdirmin=30,+
acdirmax=60,soft,async,sec=sys,vers=3:2,nocache')

In summary the remote machine does an export called tmp I created a dummy
directory called /gdihq/tmp on my local machine (done outside of the above
command).
Then this command mounts that export over that dummy directory.
