Problems Accessing B&W NFS Mounted Drives in WFWG 3.11 (108154)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11
This article was previously published under Q108154 SYMPTOMS
If you run Beame and Whiteside's network file system (BW-NFS) for Lan
Workplace on open datalink interface (ODI) with Windows for Workgroups 3.11
and you set an NFS file system as a mounted drive, the drive is visible but
not accessible in Windows. (It appears as a blank disk.)
CAUSE
This behavior is caused by a problem with the Beame and Whiteside NFS
redirector.
RESOLUTION
Although the directory appears empty, the files can be accessed if you know
the name of the file. Beame and Whiteside is aware of this problem.
STATUS
Beame and Whiteside has developed new drivers to make Windows for
Workgroups 3.11 work with its product and the ODI stack. The problem in the
redirector will be addressed in a future release. For more information,
contact Beame and Whiteside at (905) 765-0822 (phone)or (905) 765-0815
(fax).
