Sharing a Drive
In order to share a drive (e.g. a partition of your hard disk or a built-in ZIP drive), click
on that drive with the right-hand mouse button, select the "Sharing" tab, and grant the
rights as desired.
If the "Sharing" tab does not appear, you must first activate file and print sharing
under "Network" in the Control Panel.
After "Apply" and "OK," the drive can be mapped by other PCs in the network.

Mapping a Drive
If a drive on another PC has been shared, you can map this drive as an additional
drive on your PC. Here you must take into consideration the rights granted for the cor-
responding drive in the "Sharing" tab (see "Access type" in the screenshot depicted).
Click on the "My Computer" symbol with the right-hand mouse button and activate
"Map network drive." Enter the path to the drive you want to map as follows:
\\<name>\<shared drive> (enter the password if necessary)
or select a drive from the list.
By ticking the "Reconnect at logon" option you can also specify whether the given
drive is to be mapped to your PC automatically when you boot (if the corresponding
PC is running).
