Mapping Solaris 8 directory to Windows drive - pcnfsd?

[gambit49]

Is there a pcnfsd daemon in Solaris 8 and how do I get it to work? Is it even needed? My users would like to map a directory on a Solaris 8 box to a Windows drive on their PC. How do I do this? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Samba lets you view and use filesystems on a unix server as if they were on your windows machine.

Thanks for the tip on Samba, Mike. Unfortunately, we use Hummingbird's NFS Maestro.

seems to have a pcnfsd ... haven't tested it, but probably worth a go.

I compiled and installed the hclnfsd daemon that came with NFS Maestro and that worked. My users are happy. Even though I did not try them, thanks for all the suggestions.
