QNTC and Domain Shares

[Gad Miron <gadmiron@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Paul

If Security/Privacy is not an issue then I suggest you create an NFS
share for a directory
on the Windows/Unix Machine (with everyone + anonymous authority)
and mount this NFS share to the IFS by issuing a Mount CMD.

MOUNT TYPE(*NFS) MFS(IP Address of Wintel machine/NFS Share Name)
like MOUNT TYPE(*NFS) MFS('192.168.89.2:/Public')

(Don't forget to add this mount CMD to your QSTRUP PGM)

You then write/copy files to this mount as if it were a local IFS Directory.
You can also manage authorities for this "Local" IFS directory.

This way no user/password/authority checking is done when writing to this
NFS mount
(because the everyone + anonymous authority granted .)
So any user on the iSeries can write/read to/from this NFS share.

This setup works for me for over three years, it is a bit slow but it surly
solved
the Domain - iSeries users and password synchronization issue.
(This NFS share technique has let me side step a Single Sign On issue )

I had some good google search links I've found some years ago when I
set this up
but I misplaced them I guess.
Try Google it yourself.

HTH
Gad
