Hello,

I have an external hard drive connected to an airport extreme that I would like to be accessible by PC via the network it's connected to. I guess I'm trying to setup a "server" more or less. I've had great success with this on the mac side of things (every mac on the network can access the drive easily). However, I have not had the same success with PCs that are connected to the network. I've had one that see's the drive, but requires a username and password and, another that doesn't see the drive at all. I've set the file sharing to open to everyone.

Am I missing something?
