    Unable to get specific drive share settings to stick


    I share my external HD over a network using the method from the bottom of this article...

    Windows Networking: How to Share Devices With Others On the Network

    It works very well actually and for a while I was able to shut down my computer or unplug drive and plug it back it or turn it back on and the settings were stored now forever whatever reason every time I do either I have to re-enter the share settings so the rest of the devices on my network can see it. Any way to get these settings to stick?

    Hello CW mate just run these for starters if you haven't already it may be the OS filing system is a little out of whack in view of it working ok before.
