NT Network sharing problem

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm running an NT workstation (ver. 4, SP 6a). The station is connected to an NT server.

I would like to access my workstation using a dialup service. Each of my drives has a default name (C$, d$

and E$). These have been shared for administive purposes and their ermissions can't be set (I get this

message when i try to change them). I've defined an

alternative set of share names (DriveC, DriveD, and DriveE), which include share permissions.

For some reason I face the following problems:

1. When I try to locate my workstation from an NT Workstation, the machine isn't seen in my network

neighborhood. The

Start=>Find=>Computers traces the workstation, but fails to identify its location (I can still access it by hitting

the icon).

For a win95 computer, the situation is even more bizzare. When I locate the workstation after running a

search, all I get is a

prespecified drive (The C$ drive, which is not open for sharing), and a request for a password.

My questions are as follows:

1. What is it that prevents to disclosure of the location of my workstation while accessing from another NT

2. How do I make my sharing drive definitions (DriveC, DriveD, etc.) available for a win95 system?
