Re: Sharing folders in Windows CE 5.0

What about the rest of the information?

<quote>
Also, what platforms are you connecting here. CE client to CE server, XP client to CE server? I can see that you are trying to share out your hard drives root. Can you try to share out \\windows or \\temp?

Hi Alexander,

I checked that my common.reg file does not have that line in the same
directory where nk.bin is being built. Do have any other suggestions?

I think that there are a few more things we can try here:

First you do not need the Remote Registry Editor or the RemoteAdmin tool to
configure the SMB Server. All you need are to add the registry settings I
outlined into your project.reg file. Each time you boot the device these
settings will be used to initialize the SMB Server. IF you do change the
registry settings when the device is running then you need to restart the
SMB Server.

If you open a build window from Platform Builder and go to the
%_FLATRELEASEDIR%. Make sure that your common.reg file doesn't have a
UseAuthentication=dword:1 line in it. It shouldn't but I just want us to be
sure.

Also, what platforms are you connecting here. CE client to CE server, XP
client to CE server? I can see that you are trying to share out your hard
drives root. Can you try to share out \\windows or \\temp?

Thanks,
