Which component needed for enabling file sharing in explorer?

G

Guest

On my target, I cannot enable directories or files for sharing on the attached network
The steps I'm doing
1) In Explorer, I select a directory which I want to share, e.g. "Program Files"
2) In the "File" menu, I select the menuline "Program Files", and then "Sharing and Security >
3) Then nothing happen
In XP (Pro), you get a window where you can do the share settings, but not in the XPe I built
I think I'm missing one or more components. I included almost everything for MS Networks, file sharing etc, but without succes
Anyone

Ed de Vries,

1. Verify that "Security Shell Extension" component is included in the
configuration, and then add the
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Sharing],
@={f81e9010-6ea4-11ce-a7ff-00aa003ca9f6} registry key to add the sharing
context menu item.
To add the Sharing tab in the properties add
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\PropertySheetHandlers\Sharing]
@="{f81e9010-6ea4-11ce-a7ff-00aa003ca9f6".

2. Add "Map Network Drives/Network Places Wizard" and "Primitive:MPRUI"
components and see if it helps.

3. Search this NG google archive for more info.

Well, I tried all of the above items 1) and 2), but without success. After clicking on "Sharing and Security >", the harddisk is doing something, but after a few seconds it stops and nothing else happens. Maybe I'm missing some more components

Ed de Vries,

Just in case, check if "Show context menu on Shell folders" option of "User Interface Core" component is set.
Actually, the "Security Shell Extension" component provides ISecurityInformation for the file system and printer. This component
displays the Security tab for file, folder, and printer objects. The Security tab allows users to view and edit permissions.
Please double check the "File Sharing" and "Security Shell Extension" (the component visibility is 200) are included and the
components' dependencies are resolved.
Try manually to register the rshx32.dll (with regsvr32, e.g.) (btw, do you use XPe/SP1?).

Then if nothing helps, you may want to monitor what is going on when you select "Sharing and Security..." context menu item. Use
Filemon/Regmon tools (www.sysinternals.com) to see what is missing from your image.

I think there is a missing component that isn't pulled in by the dependancy
check. My notes aren't clear, but I think it was Primitive: MPRUI.

It works! KM, thanks VERY much! The "Just in case....." was the golden tip
I didn't know there are option settings in the "User Interface Core", thanks to the well-documented components ;-
I'm checking now if the other components do have option settings so I don't overlook these in the future
