    Hello Everybody, ,

    I need some specific help… 
     
    Straight to the point, I have a server  AIX 5.3  with CIFS Windows Server Shared folder (see en example below )
     
    //X.X.X.X/share$/folder1  /server/rep1/folder1
    //X.X.X.X/share$/folder2  /server/rep1/folder2
     
    //X.X.X.X/share$/folder1  /server/rep2/folder1
    //X.X.X.X/share$/folder2  /server/rep2/folder2
     
    We need to change our system and replace the CIFS link between Unix and windows by a local FS 
     
    I'm not a UNIX specialist and i don't know how to do that ? 
     
    If you look our configuration //X.X.X.X/share$/folder1  have two mount points (same conf with //X.X.X.X/share$/folder2 ).
     
    How i can  have the same configuration with a single FS, i thought use a symbolic link by i'm not sure 
    Create FS  
    mount /dev/sda3 /server/rep1/
    cd /server/rep1/
    mkdir folder1
    mkdir folder2
     
    cd /server/rep2
    ln -s /server/rep2/folder1 /server/rep1/folder1
    ln -s /server/rep2/folder2 /server/rep1/folder2
     
    I afraid to be on the wrong take , i will  appreciate any feedback!
