Re: accessing PC directory from system I

If it is for a web application, you could put the images on another server 
some where and set up a webserver on the other server.  Then reference the 
images by the URL to the server they reside on.

Re: accessing PC directory from system I






OK, I was beginning to think the same thing. Since our I profiles don't 
match our LAN profiles, it was going to be a mess. We don't use any kind 
of single sign on products here either. 

HMM wonder if those discs from my old S20 in the garage would work. S20 to 

power 6 , no I don't see that happening.

Neither NFS nor QNTC work reliably enough to make this a feasible
approach. Go buy more disks. Get used ones. They work just as well and
will still be covered under maintenance.
