What's the difference between sharing a hard disk on XP Pro and creating a
Network Place to put the HD on the network? Obviously the icon is different.
Which is "better"?
I'm particularly interested in enabling Macs to access the shared drives.
Our Macs run Panther 10.3 (we can't upgrade to Tiger due to some conflicts
with software we use) and I have a hard time getting the XP shares to show up
on the Mac, and I am unable to get 2 volumes to show up on the same share.
The one I add last is the only one the Macs see.
Panther has some issues with cross-platform networking, so I want to try the
XP sharing method that's most robust, to give us a fighting chance.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
