I need to know how I map a disk on a file server (windows) from a Domino-server on a AS400.

Greatfull for answers, because I´m in big trouble.

If what you’re looking for is SMB filesharing service for the AS/400 (making the AS/400 share files like a Windows server), I seem to remember something from a few years back called NetServer, now called “iSeries NetServer” (see http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/netserver)

But if what you’re looking for is the other way around… to make the AS/400 box become an smb client of a Windows server, I’ve never seen anything that’ll do that.

I’m not sure you can do this from an AS/400 ?

The other way around is almost no problem, but I’ve never heard of mapping drives from the AS/400 to a Windows machine.

What do you need to do ? Maybe there is an alternate path ?

No way that I know of, but there are tons of ways to move data between the two other than file sharing.

What are you trying to do?
