Nfs Client Windows 2003 Server

This document describes how to configure Windows Server 2003 Release 2 Server Network File Share (NFS) as an authenticated storage repository for XenServer. Oct 21, 2009 I wish to setup NFS shares on an HP StorageWorks All-in-One AOi400 that is rinning Windows Storage Server 2003 R2. Attached to the AOi400 is an MSA 50. NFS client and server for windows ProNFS 3.2 download - Windows 7 - NFS client and server for Windows 2000/XP/2003/VISTA/2008/7/2008R2.

As only a last resort I suppose it would be possible to install a linux in a Virtualization environment hosted by the Windows workstation, ie. Virtualbox- which would then provide a shared storage that the guest would have mounted as an NFS volume. Execute Batch File After Tfs Build Template here. I imagine it would help considerably to have a seperate network interface for the guest to mount the share through. In other words: • Install Virtualbox to Windows desktop. • Install TinyCore to Virtualbox. • Configure TinyCore's environment to include a shared storage directory.

• Install nfs-common to TinyCore. • Mount desired NFS share from TinyCore. Either point the Virtualbox share to where TinyCore mounts the NFS share to reach it from the Windows host, or 6b. Mount the NFS mount to the directory Virtualbox is providing to the Windows host.

As I said, last resort. I'd be hesitant of running one that isn't Microsoft's or a very well tested solution - especially for any 'serious' sharing (beyond simple file copy). Realize NFS is a very powerful network protocol, more so than most people use it for. For example storing virtual machine images on NFS works fine, survives a server outage (regardless of length) without losing data, etc. This covers why it's not 'easy' - A better question mayb e why not just use samba on the nfs server to expose the shares via smb?
