Hi everybody, I have a problem with my home network:
i've shared my external HD over my LAN Wifi network, but it seems I cant access it from the other computers and devices connected to the network
The network structure is the following:
the pc is connected through cable to a router.
other devices connect via wifi to the router.
the pc is a desktop, and my external hd is connected to it via USB
if I try to access a shared folder residing n that HD, i have this answers:
-My MacosX says me this "The operation cannot be completed because the original item for "HD" cannot be found "
-My win xp laptop says ""\\path-blah\blah\blah\ is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The network path was not found.""
-My android smartphone says just "failure"
obviously i've shared the folder enabling all the permissions, just in the same way I do with other folders
In fact, I need to point out that every other shared folder, residing in the internal HDs of the system is accesible without no problems.
Instead every folder, for every kind of external HD, though shared with the same permissions of every other, is not accessible
What can I do to solve this problem?
