Hello,

Is it possible from a windows xp or windows 2000 systems acess to a hard
disk with unic sco openserver files, just to check if there exists one file?

Thanks in advance.

Sure. You have two ways to do it:

- Install Samba (http://www.samba.org) on the SCO server and share
(using Samba) the server partitions (file systems) so Windows could see
it transparently

- Install a NFS driver on the Windows XP and Windows 2000 systems and
share (using NFS) the server partitions (file systems)

For more information on NFS and Samba, look at these sites:
