Works Great!
after a telnet to my AIX server I could
(mount cifs ....etc) mount a PC shared directory,
do an 'ls' and see all the PC files from the
AIX server. Now how can I do the reverse or
can I not do it at all. It seems like I have to get (buy)
AIX Fast Connect to accomplish the reverse. Is this the
only way?

are you trying to mount the aix directories on pcs, or the other way
around? aix won't mount smb filesystems.
