Cannot see shared drive on Network? help

J

jtsnow

I have a Win2000 PC running with a USB 2.0 to a external Hard drive on a
home LAN and I set the drive to "Share". But none of the PCs can see the
Shared drive. Even the PC that has the drive attached cant see it when
looking at Network.

The Shared drive is connected and works fine via the USB, the win2000 PC
itself sees and can write to the drive over USB. All the USB drivers are
working and the drive shows up in the device manager correctly as a USB
device under harddrives.

I am trying to use this drive as backup location for my home LAN. All other
PCs on LAN are XP. This is the only Win2000 OS.

Any thoughts on how I can get the drive to be network accessible?
Thanks!
