Ok, I run an application on one pc that must be accessed by another pc on my lan. I had this all working fine until I upgraded my pc and reinstalled everything. Here's what I need:
PC 1 is my pc with the application on it.
PC 2 is the pc that needs to access my pc from the lan
I have mapped my pc's c drive from PC 2 and it shows up. But when I go into the application on PC 2 to set the directory for the database from PC 1 I can't get to the database. The application and database are located in Program Files directory on PC 1 and when I right click and try to turn on Sharing for the Program Files directory on PC 1...all the sharing stuff is grayed out. This is how I set it up before.
I must be able to navigate to that directory from PC 2.
How can I turn on Sharing on PC 1's Program Files directory or does anyone else have a better idea of how to get this to work?
Many thanks!
