File sharing or printer sharing is a server service. It depends upon the "File
and Printer Sharing For Microsoft Networking" network component. See my
tutorial.

Default workstation service

i think i figured it out. but i cant re-install client for microsoft network.
it wont let me. the error message is, "Could not add the requested feature.
The error is: The system cannot find the file specified." i already tried
replacing the localspl.dll file. that didnt work.
