when you create a shared folder in Active Directory how do you search for it
on the client side? For example there is the Search option from the Start
menu on windows 2000 pro and you can bring up the Search For Printers
window... from there you can search AD for shared printers that are
published in AD. Is there an equivelant for searching for shared folders?

Thank you!
