</div>

just a quick question… I noticed that it would only let me share a folder. Is there a way to share a partition? Or is mapping a shared folder the only way to go about that?

it also wouldnt let me share a folder from my client computer with the server machine (when I tried accessing the client thru the server, it said I didn’t have admin priviliges or something and to contact the network admin , even though I’m logged on both machines as an admin and setup the proper folders to share… is it only a one way street, so to speak?)

Open up my computer and I am pretty sure you can right click on a partition and either go to sharing or properties and click on a sharing tab.
