QNX and NT Network???

I have the unsavory task of integrating our QNX4 systems into our existing
NT network and I am a person with little networking experience. I would
just like to get an idea for how easily this is done. I have viewed the
TCP/IP Users Guide and it seems rather vague, making me all the more
hesitant about doing this. We are using an ethernet network. I just want
to know what I am up against and if anyone has suggestions to help out that
would be appreciated too.

Thanks,

File sharing is essentially what I am after.

QNX has build-in capability (SMBfsys) to access a Windows shared drive.
For Windows to access QNX driver you have to install a free third party
software call Samba.

As for setting up TCP/IP a basic setup if fairly simple to do. It actually
gets quite easy if you have a DHCP server somewhere in the network.

I am sure you’ll find all the help in here to get you going.
