NFS
Client
NFS Client enables Microsoft Windows
98/95/ME/NT/2000/XP users to gain access
to the NFS file systems on UNIX networks.
Auto-Mounting
NFS Drives
There
are two ways to automatically mount all NFS drives when Microsoft Windows
98/95/ME/NT/2000/XP boots up: (1) Map
drives through Windows Explorer and shut down the system without unmapping
them. Windows will always try to reconnect previous network drives once
you logon to the system again, or (2) put the NFS Client icon in the
Startup Windows Group after you have selected the AutoMnt option in
the NFS Drive Definition dialog box (This is not recommended).
Accessing Remote Files from
Your Windows File Manager and Windows Applications
You can access remote files easily from any
Windows applications as well as from the Windows Explore after you mount the file system
-- simply reference the files through the assigned drive letter as if they were local
drives.
Symbolic Link
Support
NFS Client will
automatically get the final target file for a symbolic link if the paths for the symbolic
link and those target files are both exported.
