Default How to mount SMB share on AIX5L (64bit kernmel)

I would like to mount SMB share from Windows 2000 server on AIX5L.

I can not install CIFS package bacause it doesn't work with 64 bit
kernel... So is it any new version of CIFS or other solution to mount
SMB shares on AIX 5.2?

Or do it the other way: mount a NFS volume from the Windows 2000 Server.
Have a look at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/sfu/default.asp for Services
for Unix 3.5.

Or export the filesystems from AIX to windows using Samba, then mount
the filesystems on windows using windows-native network drive mapping.

Have you not heard of Samba ?

http://aixpdslib.seas.ucla.edu/packages/samba.html
http://www.samba.org/

And Webmin to administer... many ways to do this, but Webmin is real
easy. Its on the linux toolbox cd or download from here..

Should have read your post a little more carefully ... SMB from Windows to AIX ...

64bit access should be fixed in 5.2.0.10 IY38244
