7376.0. "Can I make a hard disk available to a WINNT machine" by SHOGUN::JAMBU_S (Skating away on the thin ice of a new day) Mon Mar 31 1997 16:03

    IS there a way to make a disk drive /CD-READER on a OpenVMS system
    available to a windows NT (Map network drive) system.  If so
    what version of Pathworks do I need and how do I do it.
    
    I remember doing the use command long time back for the 
    same to connect to an account on the VMS system, but in this
    	case I need to make a drive available and not an account.
    
    Thanks

	Do I need Pathworks on my NT machine as well. I have installed the PATHWORKS server on the VMS machine. suresh

	For NT to communicate with the Pathworks you will need to use a common transport protocol. Use NETBEUI as it comes built into NT and Pathworks for OpenVMS. DECnet would require Pathworks for NT and TCP/IP would require a TCP/IP stack for OpenVMS. Eamonn

	PATHWORKS file server will use IPX, is the message get when I start server. How do I change it use NETBEUI.

	The PATHWORKS for OpenVMS(LAN Manager) server will not use IPX but the PATHWORKS for OpenVMS(NetWare) server will. You could access that via the NT NetWare client if you wanted. If your OpenVMS server is only using IPX, then I suspect that the LM server has not been installed/configured. I recommend you stop by note 7 for the location of the server conferences to find more information on the various server products.

	Thanks! I know there is Lan Manager Server running on the system. I will look in note 7

	I have configured the LAN MAnager to run NETBEUI. But when I connect from WINNT, I keep getting the error ..Connection denied. NO license loaded for FORTY1. suresh

	(obviously) you need an appropriate license to access the server. This can either be a client-based (WNT CCS license or FPA license) using the client licensing software for NT -or- a server-based FPS license. I suggest you read through the many other notes here and in the other notesfiles about PATHWORKS Licensing.
7376.10		SHOGUN::JAMBU_S	Skating away on the thin ice of a new day	`Tue Apr 22 1997 12:27`	14
	I have the license loaded, I can see the four directories (such as NETLOGON, RPLFILES wtc) from my PC and I am able to create a network drive on my NT machine. However if I ty to explore the contents, I get access is denied. I have used ADMIN/PATH and set permissions to permit guest and admin. When I logon from my Windows NT if I do a COnnect AS guest, it gives me an error message saying "exisitng credentials conflict with supplied credentials" I guess I am doing something stupid. suresh

	Suresh, You may need to grant access to _your_ account (it sounds like you're connecting using an existing account and not guest). With your client connected to a share on the PATHWORKS server, do $ NET SESSIONS and see what username it lists. Likely, whatever username you specify when logging onto the nt workstation is a valid account on the PATHWORKS server as well. Therefore, you need to grant THAT account access to the share directories/files... Paul
