- I am trying to access an OS/2 2.0 NFS server (IBM TCP/IP 1.2.1 for OS/2)
- from a DOS 5.0 PC running Sun PC-NFS 4.0. I can mount drives from the
- OS/2 server, but when I do a dir I get names that look like...
-
- WINWO~7A <DIR> 04-14-92 9:06a
-
- when they should look like...
-
- WINWORD DSK <DIR> 04-14-92 2:06a
-
- (notice the time stamp is wrong also)
-
- In fact the only file or directory that has a extenstion is a WINA20.386
- but even it is displayed as WINA2~HA.386.
-
- You can cd to a directory if you know the name (not the dir displayed
- mangled version).
-
- You cannot execute .exe files but you can type autoexec.bat, for example.
- You can copy files from DOS to NFS server, but you cannot copy from the
- NFS server to DOS (says file not found).
-
- Can anyone shed some light on this problem. When I called Sun, all I got
- was a "we didn't test with that software" answer.
