Unable to share Folders on a 2nd Harddrive

ManRSA · 10-03-2006, 07:23 AM

Hello

My main harddrive is mounted as sda2 and the second one as sdb1.I'm having trouble to share a folder on the second hard drive(sdb1) of our Suse9.3 server. I get an error that says only Local Folders can be shared. I want it to be shared so that MS Windows machines can have access to it. Folders on my main hard drive (sda2) is no problem, I just can not get folders on the second one to be shared.

Is there a way to do this?

Did u check your rights ? Are u shareing under samba, or something else ?

I am using Samba.

I have set the permissions of the folder I want to share, for everybody to view and modify, but it does not list under shared folders. Is there somewhere else I have to set my rights?

Once I try to add it to Shared Folders under "Configure File Sharing", I get the error that I can only share Local Folders.
