On my WinXP Pro machine, I can right-clcik on the C:drive and the context
menu offers me "Sharing and Security...".

On my XPe target, this is not in the context menu. Any ideas which
component or setting affects this?

mdg1,

To get a security tab working from a right click menu you need 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)

The topic has been discussed a few times, search this NG google archive for
more info.
