Marker0077 0 Posted February 1, 2004 I was able to share file resources without having the Files & Printer Sharing service installed, I have yet to test this with printers but I was curious as to why this is even there? Is this for sharing over the internet or what? Share this post Link to post
duhmez 0 Posted February 1, 2004 iIt's for sharing files and printers. You ant share with theis service uninstalled. You thought you did , but you did not. Share this post Link to post
Marker0077 0 Posted February 1, 2004 Yes & No. I just did a bit more testing on this & it does function without the FAPS (File and Printer Sharing) service but not completely. I just re-installed Win2k on the server here & it does not establish new resources, it only allows you to access what has already been established. Either way though, without the FAPS service installed the FAPS is dodgy & that's not cool. I guess I answered my own question, thanks for your time though. Share this post Link to post
