38917 2002-03-12 21:50:00 I need to connect 2 PCs, one running W2000 and the other NT4. The hardware link is installed and running. The W2000 PC permits sharing of its HDDs and I can view and access these from the NT PC but cannot do this in the reverse direction because there is no Share facility available in the Drive/ Properties window and no sharing under Control Panel/Network/Services. I have spoken to the computer supplier and others, who tell me that the feature should be available but we have not found it. Can you please help?? Guest (0)
38918 2002-03-13 08:32:00 Are you logged on to the NT machine as administrator? and if you are have you created the share on the folder you want to see.
From the 2000 machine goto run and type \\ntmachinename\c$ (need administrator priv.)

I am logged into both machines as administrator. Network Neighbourhood on both machines only sees the W2000 m/c. On the NT m/c Share is not an option when right-clicking on either the drive or on any folder.

From the NT m/c I can access the W2000 drives only after logging in to it as administrator. The problem seems to be that sharing is not available on the NT m/c (see previous E-mail). Hope this helps.
