I am having problems sharing a hard drive within a windows 2000 environment. All the computers are within the same domain. What is the best way in doing this?

Many thanks

If the USB Drive is present in the Windows 2000 collection of available drives you share it like any other Drive.

If if does not appear it is Not a Network problem, you might have a problem with the Enclosure firmware interaction with Windows2000.

Log to this page it has a lot of links to instructions to Windows Network Settings, and Sharing.
