Problem: NET SHARE DOS command does not work
under windows XP ProfessionnalI'm trying to share a folder named "DAMA" by using the DOS prompt command NET SHARE.
I succesffully made the DAMA folder to become shared (I do see the correct Icon), however I can not access the folder from partner computer (I'm sure about others configuration aspects).
It seems that the sharing is done but is not actif . In order to have the sharing being actif, I was obliged to do a Unshare followed by Share by using the XP GUI (Folder -> Security & Sharing ->...).
Is it because I have used the "Network Set Up Wizard" prior the sharing.
I read that this Wizard inactivates all futur sharing untill we do the sharing manually by using the XP GUI (is this true).
I read that this Wizard cancel the sharing for protection purpose. How come my folder is shared by does not behave so ?
Many thanks in advance.
Kiz.
