Re: Sharing drives between systems
Commands like:
$DIR other_node::some_disk:[some_dir]
and
$TYPE other_node"username password"::test.txt
Of course there are all sorts of security opens: defaul accounts (not advised), proxies, explicit username/password.
Hein.

Re: Sharing drives between systems
you may even be so lucky, that your network people do not block DECnet.
Then you do not even have to hassle with the DECnet-over-IP config.
A simple DECnet config __IF allowed__, is much simpler.
But after successful config, they work exactly the same.
Proost.
Have one on me.

Re: Sharing drives between systems
Aside from your familiarity with NFS, what advantages do you feel it has over DECnet?

Re: Sharing drives between systems
1) you have to enable NFS service
$ @SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$CONFIG
Choice server component and client component.
2) enter into TCPIP console
$ TCPIP
look at MOUNT command that's like /etc/mount of unix system
TCPIP>HELP MOUNT
Good Luck!

Re: Sharing drives between systems
In one of your earlier responses, you mentioned that you were looking for something "DECnet is more viable, but more like NFS".
I may be missing something. What characteristic of NFS is important?
In NFS, most definitely provides client/server access to files. It is by no means "both systems having the drives as local". DECnet transparent file access, properly configured with proxies and logical names, will give essentially the same degree of access. For jollies, I have, on occasion, set my default device to a DECnet-including path, and even done compilations, links, and, executions directly over the DECnet.
It is, for many people, a somewhat unexpected result. It is a direct result of OpenVMS' architectural approach to most things. A file is a file is a file, after all.

Re: Sharing drives between systems
If you want security you use DECNet (for sure) and if security isn't such a big deal you can use the IP stuf. We still have to wait for IPv6 if we want some option of security in IP.
On the VMS site you can mount the drive eg:
$ tcpip mount dnfs1: "
