Hi jessieboy2

Could you please follwo below steps . 1. Installing Windows Services for UNIX (WSFU) 2. Copying the ESX Server password and group files to Windows 3. Configuring WSFU for accepting ESX Server connections 4. Sharing the Windows folder for NFS compatibility 5. Configuring the ESX Server to mount the Window NFS Share as Datastore.
