Linux reading VxFS / HFS filesystems... (non-LVM)

Has anyone ever "succesfully" mounted a HP-UX (11.00) HFS or VxFS filesystem (non-LVM) on a Linux server?

If so, what were the procedures, filesystem type on Linux used, and any modules defined in the kernel?

I've read other forum posts about ext3 and LVM, but I want to hear from a success story.

Second question: Is the JFS used by IBM the same as JFS (VxFS) used on HP-UX?
It's only a flesh wound...

Hi,

I never did it but I am quite sure that it would work with Samba. Give it a try.

Rgds,

The possible we did, the unpossible we're doing but for a miracle you have to wait some time.

Does your version of Linux have NFS services? If so then you should be able to export a file system from your HP-UX box and mount it via NFS on your linux box. That is basic unix functionality.
