Title: File Sharing with 5.5
Post by: David on September 16, 2002, 11:30:18 AM

I am pretty new at this so please forgive if this is an easy one.

I want to use my e-smith as a file server in addition to its role as web server.  I can see the e-smith in my WinME's Network Neighborhood however when I click on it I get the message:

Not Accessable.  No permission to access resource.

I am not sure what I need to change to make it so I can see it.  I can FTP into the server just fine.

Thanks for your ideas.

Hi David

The user names and passwords must exist on both the E-smith box and the ME box.
So;  for user1 (with pwd1) in group1, the ibay must be set so that group1 has write & read permission to it.  Then, when user1 (with pwd1) logs into the ME box ibay/files should be visible.
HTH
