Hi All
I dont know much about Unix, much less about Sun Solaris 8. I want to
know if its possible to "share" a directory in Sun Solaris 8 so that
its seen from a windows PC?

If its possible, what resources/software is required?

How can it be done?

Thanx
Best Regards

It's not generally possible to delete posts. Once you've sent it,
it's out there. (In theory, posts can be deleted by sending "cancel"
messages, but they're unverified and subject to abuse, so many news
servers ignore them.)

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.
