Access files on host PC

Hi,

I am using MicroC/OS II kernel on my nios dev board. My application needs to access files from the host network. Is it possible to do that. I read in the forum that I can start an nfs server on my Linux machine. I am a beginner and I am not much aware of usinf nfs in MicroC/OS II. I need to access a file "/home/sony/test.txt" on my host computer running on linux. Is it possible to do this.

I have tried to use the "Altera Host based file system" in the nios 2 ide in the debug mode. but its pretty slow and I dont want to work that way.

Can anyone suggest something?

Thanx,

sony
