Questions: 

I am trying to use NFS server to make a disk and/or directoories 
available to PC clients running the OnNet32 tcp/ip nfs client under MS Windows 95.  I have not been able to get a PC client to 
successfully connect yet.  I am running UCX V3.2 on a VAX
4000-90 under OpenVMS 6.1.  I can see the server using
explorer on the PC and the file systems are available but when I
click on one or try to map a drive to one, I see UCX messages
saying I have a request on port 515 (LPD)   I have proxys set up
and on the PC I have authentication enabled for the nfs client so
that it should get a UID/GID.  Here is a sample of what I have tried while experimenting:

ucx map "/test" dka100:
ucx add export "/test" /host=*
add proxy Username /UID=nnn /GID=nnn
 where username is a current OpenVMS username with a uic
that matches the uid and gid here.

I also experimented with creating a container file system to no
avail.
I would use dsnlink but we just moved to a new building and do
not have dsnlink set back up yet.
Is it even possible to share disk reources with a OnNet32 NFS client ?

1568.1NFS Does Not Use Port 515XDELTA::HOFFMANSteve, OpenVMS EngineeringTue Feb 11 1997 14:484
   If the OnNet32 package is requesting port 515, this would appear to
   be a configuration or run-time problem with the OnNet32 NFS client.
   Check the OnNet32 documentation, or contact OnNet32 support.
