Configure the NFS server
- Make sure there is an entry for the host in your
c:\windows\hosts file.
If you don't have a
hosts file, copy the sample
file called
hosts.sam in the same directory.
For Windows NT*, these files are in
c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc.
The entries will have an IP address followed by a host name. You can find a host's IP address using PING. An entry looks something like this:
n.nnn.nnn.nnn hostname # descriptive comments - Double click the Network Neighborhood icon.
- Double click the Entire Network icon. (Depending on the NFS client you are using, you may need to select other interim directories.)
- Double click the NFS Servers I have Configured icon.
- Click your right mouse button on an empty spot in that window to obtain a list.
- Choose Properties.
- Fill in the new host name, and click on Add.
- Select Close.
- Define a VM user ID for the host.
