Hello,

I've found a similar problem in the thread Visual COBOL R3 Development Hub - Project Path, and I think I am doing all certainly in the right way.

I can access to the Unix server without problems using the Remote System perspective, but I am not able to create a remote project.

Remote machine's name is "aixlab0102". If I use \\\\aixlab0102\\MNG\\DESA\\FUENTES\\EQBASE\\visual_cobol (local path) and /MNG/DESA/FUENTES/EQBASE/visual_cobol (remote path), with a project named "visual_cobol" or any other thing, the Remote Project template says "The remote location does not match the directory on the local path". I tried to use a unit mapped to \\\\aixlab0102, but with the same result.

Any help, please?

NOTE: We are using NFS, not Samba. Our provider told us that it works the same way.

Hi again,

Are you working on this issue, by chance?

Thank you

Hello voyager,
Unfortunately, for Visual Cobol for Eclipse, only smb is supported as a network file sharing protocol, even on Visual Cobol for Eclipse on Red Hat or Suse, Linux compiling on Visual Cobol Devhub on Linux/Unix systems such as AIX, which is your use case.

Unfortunately, this will cause a lot of inconvenience to us, because IBM does not give support to this product.

Are you planning to use NFS in a near future?
