Mounting a NFS network file system across platforms - Solaris to AIX

Hi all,

Kind of an emergency situation, I have to NFS mount an AIX filesystem on to a Sun Solaris OS (5.10).

Typically from Sun to Sun is:

mount -F nfs <remote file system>/dir <mount point>

Which of course doesn't work if the remote file system is another OS (like AIX).

Is there some special step or flag that must be added? Thanks much for any advice!

:confused:

Okay I have this solution I found (quote from a forum)

Make the exports accessible for NFS version 3, then

# mount -F nfs -o vers=3 hostname:directory mountpoint

I cannot find a word anywhere in Google as to 'making exports accessible for NFS'. Does anyone know specifically what this person is talking about?
Thanks much!

Okay, it looks like this command works ad hoc, and does mount the AIX file system on the Solaris, no export magic needed.
