CD not displaying correct long filenames on HP-UX

[Edgar Arroyo]

How can I get my HP-UX to display the correct filenames? I burned a CD and it won't show properly when I mount and I request a directory of the cd.

[melvyn burnard · Accepted solution]

you have either burnt the CD incorrectly (possibly wrong package used to create it) or you are not mounting it correctly
You may need to use pfs_mount (if the relevant HP-UX patches are NOT installed) or use mount (1m) with the corect options if the relevant patches are installed

I forgot to mention that I burned this on windows xp.

Try:

mount -o cdfs

[Edgar Arroyo]

you mean:

mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom

I tried that already.. I tried the -o cdfs just for fun and it gave me error.

hi

try with option cdcase

[Edgar Arroyo]

None worked...

I managed to install Samba 1.9.18p8 on the HP-UX 10.20 but I need to know how to access a Windows Share from it.

I saw the flie smbclinet but I don't know how to make it a "folder" do I have to mount it on the unix machine? It only works kinda like an FTP client...

[Edgar Arroyo]

Got it to work...

Installed Sharity 2.9, everything working smooth... /CIFS is my "network neighborhood"

Try this:

1) See if you have something like this in your /etc/pfs_fstab:

pfs-rrip xlat=unix 0 0

Ex.: /dev/dsk/c3t2d0 /SD_CDROM pfs-rrip xlat=unix 0 0

2) nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &

3) nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &

4) Insert CD-ROM into the tray a run the following: /usr/sbin/pfs_mount

[Edgar Arroyo]

I get these messages:

[/@unix1] # nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
Sending output to nohup.out
[1] 2494
[/@unix1] # nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &
[2] 2496
[/@unix1] # Sending output to nohup.out
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount /cdrom
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount: /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 on /cdrom: not rrip.
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount: giving up on /cdrom

Edger,
do this things ( if you have already tried one forget it )

# ioscan -fnC disk

See the output carefully and locate your CDROM device correctly. Say it is cxtxdx

# mount /dev/dsk/cxtxdx /cdrom

That is the simple way and it works for me always provided CD has valid data.

Hi, my problem is not mounting it, it's that it shows some funky names (8+3 format) and I checked and supposedly HP-UX does not support Joliet which is what I used when burning the CD (only option on Win XP prog. I have)

[Eric Antunes]

Try puting another CD and try again "/usr/sbin/pfs_mount " because I think it may be the CD that is unrecognizable for HP-UX...

[Eric Antunes]

When you get "not rrip." it's because it is not a recognizable CD for UX.

hi,

try this using pfs_mount:

1. create file, /etc/pfs_fstab
2. add entry to /etc/pfs_fstab
# "device name" /cdrom pfs-rrip xlat=unix 0 0
3. run pfs daemon at the background
# nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
# nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &
4. start nfs server
# /sbin/init.d/nfs.server start
5. mount and unmount file system
# pfs_mount /cdrom
# pfs_umount /cdrom
6. create the directory structure of the staging system
7. copy from CD or DVD to file system
# cp -r /cdrom/* .

hope it help.

regards.

Hi Edgar,

you're right, you can't use Joliet!
You need ISO9660 when burning the CD.
