Some of our project will be done on windows(NT or 98) platform . the HP unix system and the windows will mutually access the data each other .
Could you tell me that how can I do so that the HP unix can access the data on the windows system ?
And the windows system how to access the data on the unix machine ?
Frank.
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionConversely, an HP-UX ASCII file will be unreadable in Notepad. Wordpad and Word will look OK but the lone LF (line feed character) used by Unix will be seen as a soft return which is meaningful in word processors.
Of course, executables are not compatible. Binary data files are probably the most compatible as long as the appropriate programs are available on both systems.
Documentation for CIFS in found at docs.hp.com and SAMBA can be found at www.samba.org.

Re: data share between windows and UNIX
For incompatible linefeed characters, these can be fixed by the "ux2dos" and "dos2ux" commands.

Re: data share between windows and UNIX
Costs though, and a yearly maintenance fee is the way to go with this product, since you'll need support when you upgrade unix etc.
See it at www.facetcorp.com

Re: data share between windows and UNIX
It will not allow Unix to get to the Windows data on the Windows machine.
You will have to use the Samba directory for moving data back and forth that is to be used.
IE, the Samba directory on the Unix machine can be seen by both, but the Windows directory can only be seen by Windows.
I am not sure if this is what you want to do.

Re: data share between windows and UNIX
Microsoft sells a set of gadgets called Services For Unix (SFU) - to my knowledge the usful tool here would be an NFS daemon to run on NT.
There are other brands of NFS (and unix-like services) out there - including, I think, some that are 'freeware' or 'shareware.'
In the past I have seen people script FTP for a batch (i.e. nightly) transfer from one platform to another... a sort of poor mans mirror. Since both platforms have an ftpd (NT needs IIS - but it is usually installed nowdays) this is workable - cheap.
But, as mentioned elsewhere, since CIFS is available on HPUX - all you need to do is install it - that is probably your best solution.

Re: data share between windows and UNIX
There is a packaged version for HP-UX called CIFS9000.
I like to compile so i grabbed the latest source and compiled it. My preference.
If you have an NT domain controller you can have your workstation authenticate against the NT box then allow access to the HP-UX server if successful.
the ^M is definitely a problem.
Samba according to their docs has not promised a fix for this but dos2ux and ux2dos usually cleans up the ascii files so its ok.

Re: data share between windows and UNIX
One warning; filename casing gets mangled during file transfers. Haven't had time to read the manual yet. Oreilly has the 'Using SAMBA' book in PDF and HTML format for the taking.
