As far as I can see the problem is very simple, when you call the helpfiles from your GUI (windows) it try to pull the information from Unix. Have you tried using SAMBA?

Hi Deepak,

As jyan said , you unix you have to use SAMBA for sharing the mount point.

That mount should be accessing for user.

Gui indirectly call the share mount for showing the HTML files.

Thanks
