How to share volume to PC?

[G4Grover]

Hi there All -

I am able to connect to my PC and access its shares normally, and I can connect from the PC to Powerbook, but all I see is the shared folders for the user I am authenticating with (which is an Admin user). For example, I connect with user account 'Jason' and I see the \users\Jason\ file structure on the OSX volume.

However, I want to access the whole 'Storage' volume from the PC.

How can I do this?

Below is machine and drive configuration information.

Thanks!
Jason

So you're trying to access other resources outside your home folder from your windows machine, correct?

I had the same problem last week. There are 3rd party software you could use. I can't remember the name of it. But I didn't want to install it. So I ended up modifying the smb.conf file.





Not sure if there's an easier way, but I did it thru the terminal.

Probably SharePoints, it's nothing to worry about, just install it.

yep. sharepoints is what i use. it is pretty cool. most of the stuff you could do with terminal commands but sharepoints makes it easy and all in one place!

SharePoints is magic!

Dang, that was EASY!

Thanks again!
