Hi
I have successfully set up my network to share 2 of my 3 hard drives with my xp laptop with full permissions. However, the 3rd Hard drive will not share with identical settings --- my xp laptop says that i do not have permissions to that drive but those settings work for the other 2. The 3 Hard drives are USB externals if that makes any difference. Any help appreciated |

Do you receive this error from the local computer or remote computer? You may need to take ownership over. This case study may help,
Administrator can't edit folder permissionsA: Assuming you logon as administrator and can't edit the permission, I would check the ownership first. To do that, right click on the file or folder. ... http://www.chicagotech.net/Security/ownership1.htm Bob Lin, MS-MVP, MCSE & CNE Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net How to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on http://www.HowToNetworking.com "Hammer136" wrote in message ...

Sorry that did not help at all but was a good idea to check that i missed out
--- i have full permissions and have set the sharing to read/write (All 3 check boxes in advanced checked). It has an identical setup as the other 2 as far as ican see but fails to work.

Ok to share it i had to create the permission group everyone in the
security/advanced on the properties of the hard drive and give it fill permissions. Dont understand why it didnt do it automatically like the other 2 but problem solved "Hammer136" wrote: Sorry that did not help at all but was a good idea to check that i missed out --- i have full permissions and have set the sharing to read/write (All 3 check boxes in advanced checked).
