CIFS Server for 10.20

[Wilder Mellotto]

Hi all,

Thanks for wasting your time helping me.

I have a server running HPUX 10.20 and I need to install Cifs Server. I search the depot to install but I couldn't find.

Can someone tell me where I can find it?

Thanks in advanced.

Hi,

From the CIFS faq's
http://www.hp.com/workstations/risc/standard/operating/hpux11/cifs_faqs.html

Will CIFS/9000 be made available on HP-UX 10?
No. The CIFS/9000 product depends on the pluggable authentication module (PAM), which is available only with HP-UX 11

Can HP-UX 11 with CIFS/9000 interoperate with HP-UX 10.20 systems?
Yes, the CIFS/9000 client on HP-UX 11 systems can access files on HP-UX 10.20 systems running Samba. (Samba is an open source Windows file-serving product for UNIX that provides the same file serving functionality provided by AS/9000.)

Or if you like you can compile your own version from the latest source.

Hope this helps a bit,

The support life ended on HP-UX 10.20 in June of last year. Originally released in 1996, HP-UX 10.20 is just too old. HP has already stopped selling HP-UX 11.0, so you may want to consider how best to get to HP-UX 11i (11.11).
