Connecting to a Unix share from Windows 2003 R2

12-20-2007, 11:01 PM

I have a server running SCO Unix which I am trying to connect to a
share from a Windows 2003 R2 server. It gives an error saying it can't
locate the server.
This works OK from a Windows 2000 server but not from a W2003 R2
server.
I can connect OK to a similarly configured Linux server.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Is the Unix box running Samba or whatever it's equivalent is?

No Samba. This is an ancient box running SCO system V.

Does it have an equivalent of Samba or something that lets it talk to
a Windows box.
