Printing to a file
Hey! Cool. I couldn't find anything like this. Clearly, I need to brush up my searching skills. I will take a detailed look at it and let you know how it works out. Thanks, -
Printing to a file
Hey folks, I have a special need. We are trying to cut down on our paper consumption and we will be digitally archiving many of the reports we have traditionally done in paper. Unfortunately, we are using some very old software so this gets complicated. We can try to modify several... -

smbmount on AIX 4.3.3
As I said in a previous thread. Use sharity. It is a smb client. http://www.odbev.at (No, I have no affiliation with them. But I needed to accomplish this 1 1/2 years ago. I was pleased to locate them.) -
connecting to a shared resource on WINNT fron UNIX
This is not quite correct. You will need to install another product to accomplish it, but try using sharity. It is published by Objective Development out of Austria. The product is a client that allows you to mount a SMB (or CIFS, if you prefer) share as a filesystem. Works pretty well...
