How can I view a SUN's folder from my Win NT Workstation? Like "Map Network Drive in Win Explorer.


Thanks.

You'd have to use samba.

If you are only interested in looking at it from a command line aspect, and if the Sun is running a telnet server, you could telnet into it:

At a command prompt type: telnet
Enter the Username & Password for your account on the Sun when prompted ... and you'll be into the home directory of the account you have on the Sun.

If however, you need to view Graphical User Interfaces from the Sun on the PC's monitor, you will need to buy a product like Hummingbird Exceed which is run on the PC and will handle the graphical transposition for you.
