Sharing CD drives in Win2k
This is a discussion about Sharing CD drives in Win2k in the Windows Networking category; I have a Win2k machine at the office and 4 Win Me machines on a network together. I have the guest account enabled on the Win2k machine and everyone can see and share files fine but no one can access the CD drives on the Win2k machine.
I have a Win2k machine at the office and 4 Win Me machines on a network together. I have the "guest" account enabled on the Win2k machine and everyone can see and share files fine but no one can access the CD drives on the Win2k machine. I created a new share for the hard drives but the CD drives sharing properties is not the same. There is no "new share" option. can someone please help me and tell me what I need to do? Thanks

Can you not right the CD drive in My Computer and choose Sharing from the menu? You then just need to click the 'Share this folder' radio button.
OP
I have done this and no one can browse to the CD drives.Hard drives are fine but no CD drives. They can see them but they are have a red "X" on them.
