Hi,

I'll bet you've had to tell someone this before - sorry, I did try to find an answer.

I am running Apache 2.2 on xampp on windows. My docroot is c:/xampp/htdocs

I need to be able to access files on another box on the network which is running sco.

Can/how do I configure Apache to add the sco folder into the mix?

Thank you for any help.

By 'sco' you mean this http://www.sco.com/

If you run Apache service as a user, Apache will then have access to network shares.

see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/platform/windows.html#winsvc

Hi.

By 'sco' I meant the SCO Unix box that I am trying to access.

Thanks.
