Hi all,

I needed to get some extra diskspace on our Workgroup-Environment file
server (A), so I bought an external HD with USB 2.0. The server, however,
does not have USB, so I connected the drive to another computer (B).

Is there a way to map this drive or subdirs to server (A) without being
logged in so anybody can access the drive/subdir with
\\ServerA\DirOnServerB? I don't want to make the dir ACLs read/write to
Everybody, but as it is a Workgroup environment, I also don't want to have
users enter their password for Server (B) every time.

Any Solutions?

Cheers,

Thorsten

Why not return the USB drive, but a larger disk and GHOST the image to
the new drive? Would have been cheaper and faster. USB drives are slow.
