We are working on PC-NeXT connection for better experiment control and data
acquisition.  Our final goals would be 1) Use PC to take data files and NeXT
to graph them.  2) Let user to use the slider on the NeXT to control the
signal sent out by the PC.  Therefore, our first step is to mount from PC to
NeXT.  Both the PC (through Ethernet card) and NeXT are connected to the Dept.
network.  At the PC site, we are using BWNFS v2.30, and added command "net
link NeXT-IP" to the "autoexec.bat";  at the NeXT site, we modified the
"exports" file by adding "-access=NeXTname:otherhostname".  However, no luck
so far.  Whenever we reboot the PC, there was always an error message such as
"access denied, device M: (the drive we defined) not linked."  Is there
anything else we should change?  Could anyone on the net give us some
suggestions?  Thank you very much for your help!
