Hi
Can I somehow mount root.qfs from another comp running Win98 via SMB/CIFS
share?
Under QNX6.2 NC I try
#fs-cifs file://<host_name>::/<share_name> /x <user_name>
#mount -t qnx4 “/x/Program Files/qnx/boot/fs/root.qfs” /remote
but get error at mount execution. Remote resource is mounted fine. I can
“ls” it but can’t mount root.qfs via that share.
What wrong?
Regards
Boris
Hi
You cannot mount some file if its path is remotely mounted via
conventional schemes (ala CIFS/NFS etc). This is true for other
OSs too! apparantly, mount looks for a file that can be accessed as a
block device… which a remotely mounted FS can’t do!
OT: In qnx however, you can mount a file remotely accessible via native QNET
networking… (mount /net/remote/path/root.qfs /remote_qfs) since QNET
operate at lowest level and raw mesages are transferred between the two
machines.
