- We are working on PC-NeXT connection for better experiment control and data
- acquisition. Our final goals would be 1) Use PC to take data files and NeXT
- to graph them. 2) Let user to use the slider on the NeXT to control the
- signal sent out by the PC. Therefore, our first step is to mount from PC to
- NeXT. Both the PC (through Ethernet card) and NeXT are connected to the Dept.
- network. At the PC site, we are using BWNFS v2.30, and added command "net
- link NeXT-IP" to the "autoexec.bat"; at the NeXT site, we modified the
- "exports" file by adding "-access=NeXTname:otherhostname". However, no luck
- so far. Whenever we reboot the PC, there was always an error message such as
- "access denied, device M: (the drive we defined) not linked." Is there
- anything else we should change? Could anyone on the net give us some
- suggestions? Thank you very much for your help!
