For example, to gain access to the DATA directory on our NT Server (NTETSEQ) I have tried the following with no success: mount -o -P NTETSEQ/DATA /mnt mount -o -P NTETSEQ:/DATA /mnt mount_nfs -o -P NTETSEQ:/DATA /mnt The DATA directory on NTETSEQ is certainly available on the network to other Windows PCs (eg J -> \\NTETSEQ\DATA). Any ideas/suggestions to this probably very simple problem would be much appreciated. As an add-on I have also had no joy trying to access files/directories on our Unix box via any of the Windows 98 or Windows NT workstations on our network, which should also be possible and just as simple?
