cd-rom ( XP to AIX )

[superstarjpmc]

hello,

I am trying to insert a cd-rom in my PC ( OS: Windows XP prof 5.1) and try to mount the same on my Unix server ( AIX 5.1.3 ). But i am not able to do it.

Unfortunately, i get errors as below.

xxx@yyyy$ mount 169.aa.bb.ccc:d:\Movie\ /mnt
mount: server 169.aa.bb.ccc not responding
: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out
mount: retrying


Can anyone help me on this ? Am I trying something which is not possible ?.. how can I do the same ?

regards
david jeyam

this is a XP problem. you need to do whatever voodoo needs to be done on the XP machine to allow export. the AIX machine is sending a RPC call and the XP machine is ignoring it. notice the text in the error, this is often a clue as to what is failing.
