NFS on Windows 2003 Server

15 November 2007

image I’m configuring a NFS share on my 2003 server so I can connect to it through my ESX servers. This way I can keep all my ISO files in one central place.

Here are a couple resources I found for setting it up and configuring it.

Note, if you’re using Server 2003 R2, then all you have to do is go into add / remove programs and add it. If you’re using anything prior to R2, you’ll actually have to download Services For Unix and install it.
