Accessing the HP 16500B File System
To mount the file system via NFS
From Computers Running the MS-DOS Operating System
To use the HP 16500H in an MS-DOS environment, you need to install a program
on your PC that allows you to use NFS protocol. One example is PC-NFS by
SunSoft Inc.
To mount the HP 16500B file system from a PC running MS-DOS, you must
create a logical drive that points to the HP 16500B file system. A typical
MS-DOS command to do this would look like one of these two examples:
net use [drive name] [host name|IP address]:/[control|data]
net use [drive name] \\[host name|IP address]\[control|data]
The choice of drive name is up to you.
The host name of the HP 16500B is set up by your system administrator.
Typically, this name is found in the hosts file on your computer or returned
by a name server. It is equivalent to the HP 16500B's IP (Internet Protocol)
address.
The control or data option specifies the type of user you want to access the
HP 16500B as.
Example
To mount, as the control user, the HP 16500B whose IP address is
"15.6.254.150" to the logical drive "L:", enter the following command at the
MS-DOS prompt. In this example, the PC-NFS
net use L: 15.6.254.150:/control
After you have entered this command, you will be able to see the
HP 16500B's file system under the "L:" logical drive on your computer.
To unmount:
net use L: /d
