We have a win2k server setup with services installed with volumes
shared out and was working fine for about 2 years. Two days ago,
server crashed. Since then, I have not been able to see my volumes
from the Mac chooser. Strange...If I retart my Mac I get prompted to
log in to the server. Yet, I still can't see it in chooser. When
tring to setup new share, get error messagde that says "cannot create
a Mac Accessible Volume within another volume. Choose differnet
directory that is not within a volume" ??

Anyone seen this before or know how to fix? Thanks.

Hi Geoffrey!

Not being able to see the server in the Chooser, but being able to log into
it via startup items sounds like Appletalk is not working on your server's
network card. Check the properties of your network connection and if
Appletalk is missing or disabled, install it or enable it.

You're probably getting the "create" error because your still have your Mac
volumes there and intact. Mac volumes can not be created from folders that
are within existing Mac volumes.

Hope this helps! bill
