information on Samba

[matteo_4]

Hi All,
on my network I have an hp-ux workstation (hp180l) with a DLT tape.

I need to backup some files and directory
into DLT from an Windows NT System.

Is possibile with Samba?
Samba work correctly with hp-ux 10.20?

If Samba don't work with hp-ux 10.20 how can I share DLT tape with Windows NT?

Samba does work with HPUX 10.20

matteo,

You need to understand that you most likely will have to restore those Windoze files using samba.

If you don't want to mess with samba, use NFS.

I have been using Samba and/or CIFS 9000 for a number of years and it works fine. I would suggest that you get HP's CIFS 9000 which is Samba but repackaged for HP. Very easy install and setup. Get both server and cifs client packages.

Good luck,
John

Ok ok

But CIFS 9000 is an open source software?

Or need a license?

Where I can find a Samba for hp-ux 10.20

or where I can find CIFS 9000??

Thank You.

Hi matteo,
the software is located on http://software.hp.com, search for cifs/9000. it is a free download with no license to use.

Hi,

Samba will WORK with HP-UX 10.20 and you will be able to tabke windows NT backup.

NFS will be efficient than the samba setup.

Hello.
Samba is working with HP-UX 10.20.
HP product is CIFS/9000 which is in fact samba.
You have to isntall CIFS client.
I have it running on my B180L to share files with W'XP.

Hope this helps,
