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 root privileges on a UNIX client to perform this task.

This task is not applicable if you are using user mapping.

Steps

  1. Ensure that you are logged on to a UNIX client with root privileges.
  2. Take ownership of the UNIX fileset with the chown command.
  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.
