I have the remote share working now. Not all of the
permissions for the new logon account were enabled so the
service couldn't start. I discovered that there's a much
easier way to give the logon account the permissions it
needs than going through and enabling each permission in
the article: when you create the logon account just put
the account in the Administrators group and it picks up
everything it needs.
Thanks for your help.
