Network File System (NFS)
Open Text offers the best of breed Windows-based NFSv4 client, server and gateway solutions that enable users and applications to access file resources on NFS-enabled storage.
Open Text NFS Client™
Open Text NFS Client™ allows users from all types of Microsoft® Windows® operating systems to transparently, securely and efficiently access file and printer resources residing on UNIX®, Linux®, VMS, Macintosh and many NFS-enabled hosts. Open Text NFS Client supports all of the latest developments in the industry-standard NFS protocol, which includes NFSv2, v3, and v4, WebNFS, GSSAPI-Kerberos implementation and LIPKEY security infrastructure. To increase the value to our users, Open Text NFS Client also comes bundled with the terminal emulation suite; Open Text® HostExplorer®.
Open Text NFS Gateway™
Open Text NFS Gateway™ allows organisations to grant their Windows users access to business data stored in UNIX file systems without requiring any software installation on Windows desktops. Open Text NFS Gateway™ is able to give Microsoft® Windows® Network users access to UNIX® machines from a familiar graphical Windows environment without having to understand UNIX, Network File System (NFS) commands or underlying network complexities. Zero installation equals zero overhead - It is every PC administrators’ dream to deploy software without having to install them individually on end-users’ desktops. A Zero-client solution that is totally seamless and absolutely transparent is no longer a fairy tale. Open Text NFS Gateway is a stable, centrally managed and high-performance zero client solution that installs on Windows PCs. It acts as a proxy between UNIX/NFS and Microsoft/SMB networks, thus eliminating the need to install NFS client software on individual PCs.
