group. It doesnt seem to matter what the folder is that I
shared out, I still cannot access it. For instance, I
have a folder called 'Junk' that I shared out on my
desktop and when I tried accessing it on the other
computer I got the 'folder inaccessible' error. I still
can access other shares that arent hidden. Any other
suggestions?
Thanks again! Shari
