Sharing a directory on an external drive
I have recently purchased a USB Harddrive.
I wish to share a directory on it, but when I tried through the share menu, or by clicking on 'share this' in Windows Explorer, Windows 7 told me that 'This folder can't be shared'.
When I tried the advanced sharing settings, I get an error telling me that 'there are no more endpoints available from an endpoint mapper'.
Other directories, on my internal HDD, are already shared fine, and a quick test confirmed that further shares from the C drive also work.
What am I doing wrong?
I am on Win 7 Home Premium and connect to a router via ethernet cable.
