To Browse NFS Automount Maps on Windows 95

  1. Open Network Neighborhood and double-click Entire Network.

    Network Neighborhood displays a list of Microsoft network workgroups, including workgroups labeled NFS Servers and NFS Automount Maps.

  2. Double-click the NFS Automount Maps workgroup.

    Network Neighborhood displays a list of the local NFS automount maps on your machine, or a list of NIS/NIS+ automount maps (Figure 3-10).


    Note -

    If your network uses NIS/NIS+ but you do not see NIS/NIS+ automount maps, you may need to configure NIS or NIS+, as explained in "Configuring NIS or NIS+".
