I've got a small office network of 4 MACS and 1 PC that connect to a Wireless N router. 3 of the MACS are running Leopard and 1 is running Tiger.

I recently upgraded to a new router and now I think I've hosed up the settings. I have a similar setup at home where I can share any folder. When I share a folder at the office from within Sys Preferences/Sharing or by checking the Share check box from folder info I'm not able to see it.

The only folder I can see is the Public Folder. I'm confused by this because I was able to share any folder or mounted drive before. At home where I have a similar setup I can share any folder on our Powermac and see it from any machine on the network.


I picked up a Leopard manual and in it I get conflicting info. One chapter says I can only share and view the Public folder. Another chapter shows how to share any folder or mounted drive. What gives? I've tried disabling file share and enabling again. I've checked permissions and have it set to 'ALL users'
