Implementing file sharing - UNIX® fileset on a Windows® client

This topic describes how to share UNIX filesets on a Windows client.

Prerequisites

You must have Administrator privileges to perform this task.

Context

Steps

  1. Ensure that you are logged on to a client with Administrator privileges.
  2. Take ownership of the UNIX fileset.
  3. Run the ls –l command to list the permissions.
  4. Issue the chmod command at the client prompt to set the UNIX permissions to 755.

    Now the owner (root) has read, write, and execute permissions, members of the system group have read and execute permissions, and everyone else (including Windows clients) has read and execute permissions.
