Hi,

On my latest build (one i started from scratch to take out unneeded
dependencies because of components I've removed) I'm trying to share a
folder on the network. I get the sharing and securtiy menu choice when I
right click on a folder, but no dialog comes up when I click it to allow me
to share. I had this working on the previous iteration and the component
list looks the same but I must be missing something. I have TCP/IP
Networking with file sharing and client and File Sharing (hotfix version) on
there, do I need some other component I'm missing?

thanks

Chris,

To get a security tab working from a right click menu you may want to
include "Security Shell Extension" component and resolve it dependencies.
Also check if image got the following registry keys:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Sharing] (Default)
REG_SZ "{f81e9010-6ea4-11ce-a7ff-00aa003ca9f6"
(to add sharing to the context menu)

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\PropertySheetHandlers\Sharing] (Default)
REG_SZ "{f81e9010-6ea4-11ce-a7ff-00aa003ca9f6"
(to add the Sharing tab in the properties)

Search this NG google archive for more info.
