[a little plug about mtools here]
Another possible solution is to convince your sysadmin to upgrade to SunOS
4.1.1. There are a few new goodies in this release such as [drum roll
please] a pcfs. [i.e. MS-DOS based filesystem] I haven't had much time
to play with it. (Upgrading 30+ machines to 4.1.1 does that to you!) But
I was able to format a pc disk and mount it as a file system. Really
cool. Try it, you'll like it!
