From: rdong AT newport DOT com (Rui-Tao Dong) Subject: symlink & sharing file system 29 Jan 1999 20:27:48 -0800 Message-ID: To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com I finally convinced my boss to let me install linux on a spare machine. The 200MHz PPro (over a slow 10BaseT line) feels a lot faster than the 266PII running NT on my desk. On my NT machine, I use mostly CYGWIN32 (b19.1 and about to upgrade) applications with VNC as my Xserver. I would like to share file systems (at least my home directory) with the linux machine. However, I haven't figure out a way to make symlink work. I export part of my NT's harddisk and use smbmount to access it from Linux. Symlink shows up as !/usr/local/src^@. If I use samba to export from Linux, I can't export symlink either. Is there an NFS server or client for CYGWIN32? -- Regards, Rui-Tao Dong Newport Corporation rdong AT newport DOT com 1791 Deere Avenue (949)253-1679(Voice) Irvine, CA 92606 USA (949)253-1240(Fax) http://www.newport.com - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
