When i try to share a directory (TripPics)in XP, (Right click TripPics,
select sharing and security - Checkmark "Share this folder on the network",
click apply) I get this message:
An Error occurred while trying to share TripPics. The Server service is not
started. The shared resource was not created at this time.

The "Server service"? What?

This all used to work and one day it just stopped working, RD quit, shared
directories went away. Was this a windows update fix or something? Maybe.

Anyway how do i return this to normal so i can share directories? I got RD
working, but i still cant share directories.

Here's the weird part, the previously shared dirs actually show up on the
network but you cant do anything with them and they dont show a shared
icon in XP
Thanks
Eric
