Networking

Here is my problem ( HELP!!! :slight_smile: ), I have a QNX running on a
Heidelberg press. I need to know how to configure the networking so
that users can submit their work via a network shared file system ( NFS
or CIFS )

You have posted in the QNX2 conferences – are you actually running
QNX2?

If so, this is nigh impossible.

QNX2 used Arcnet, and was a defunct product before CIFS was even
dreamed of.

There was a 3rd party TCP/IP product, not sure what capabilities
it had, not sure if it is still available or if the hardware it
used (a couple of different ethernet cards dating to the 80s)
are still available.

Are you sure you have QNX2?

If you are not sure try the following commands at the commandline/console:

tsk in
sin in
pidin in

If the first works, you’re on QNX2.
If the 2nd works, but not the third, you’re on QNX4.
If the 3rd works, you’re on QNX6.

QNX4 and QNX6 have NFS/CIFS options readily available – try other
conferences, e.g. qdn.public.qnx4 for QNX 4.

Mr. Lich appears to have declared this emergency after two replies to his
identical posting already appeared in qdn.public.sysadmin.

For extra amusement try:
tsk tsk
sin toomuch
pidin [tsk|toomuch|sin]

This is a close as QSSL comes to having Easter Eggs (that I know of!)
Gee, some of MicroSlob’s Easter Eggs are over 5 MB with full animation!

Also “pidin pie”.

You might try On-Line Data (www.onlinedata.com)
Their web-site does not show it (and they may not even sell it anymore),
but while I was there, we had “On-Link” for QNX2 which gave some CIFS
(SMB) connectivity to QNX2 systems.

Wade,
I’ll contact you directly about this.
I work at Heidelberg, and over the years we have used both Qnx2 and Qnx4
on some of our press control systems.
