Re: [SFU] Services for Unix [anyone using it]

On Tuesday 29 August 2006 11:40 am, reader@xxxxxxxxxxx had this to say in
microsoft.public.windowsxp.general:

Is anyone here using SFU (Services for Unix) on an xp machine?

More over, anyone using SFU to setup Network File System (NFS)
on a mixed windows/unix network?

The SFU literature says it can be used to setup NFS but I have not
been able to get it working yet.

I'm hoping to find someone who has some personal experience with it.
Following the documentation hasn't produced a working setup.

Sorry, but I've never tried to run SFU on an XP machine and by the responses
you've recieved here to date, it looks like you aren't going to get much
help in this newsgroup.

Here's an article that gives step by step instructions on doing what you
want. Maybe it'll be clearer than the docs?

http://www.openfree.org/pet/index.php/Mount_an_NFS_share_from_Windows

The author of the article provides a way for you to contact him, so maybe
that will help if you're really stuck?
