Installing NT Application Server in UNIX Environment

Question

Hi,
I need to install a windows applications server. The CI and DB runs on HPUX in a Cluster Enviroment. I found severals SNOTES, the bottom line - i need a SAMBA Server.
But do i really need a SAMBA Server to share the /usr/sap Directory as sapmnt? Is there any way to avoid the samba Server?
thx for help

Answer 1

don't know where the problem is. the directory is accessable. the administrator has full rights, also the sidadm.
i'm not sure about the mixup of / and
in the part:
NWInstall._createDirectories([\ \sdbtwa00/sapmnt/BWT/SYS, undefined])
can windows handle this?
