I've seen other posts about this, but they don't seem to have been resolved,
so am interested to see again if anyone has a clue about this.
I have an external (firewire) HD plugged into one machine on my home
network. I want that to be accessible from my other machines for backup
purposes. I can create a share and all works fine, but after a few times
removing the drive and plugging it back in, the share disappears (it might be
that this happens only after a reboot; not sure about that).
I am using XP SP2, and *not* simple file sharing.
Does anyone know either:
(1) how to make a share on an external HD persist across un/reconnections
and/or reboots
or alternatively
(2) how to write a .vbs that will run automatically on plugging the drive
in, which creates the share if it doesn't exist.
Cheers.
