Using File and Print Services from a Windows client

Accessing shared resources

UNIX directories and printers are shared across the network and made available to Windows clients through VisionFS shares.

A shared folder accesses the files in the UNIX directory. To access a shared folder, follow the exact same steps you use to access a share on another Windows PC.

An easy way to access UNIX resources is by double-clicking the server's icon in Neighborhood Network. If the server isn't in your workgroup, double-click Entire Network and open the workgroup it's in. You can also create a shortcut on the Windows desktop to a specific UNIX resource. (If the server doesn't appear in any workgroup, check that the subnet mask is the same on the Windows client and the UNIX server.)
