On another topic, I like to learn more about OS X especially in the area of networking. I would like to know how to change or assign another drive aside from my home directory as a shared network directory for a Windows machine.
I am currently using only the "Home" directory as a network backup media for my home machines. With my Windows machine (a laptop), I use XXCOPY to clone (back up) my Windows ME HD wirelessly to my G4 Sawtooth running X. How do I change that to another drive or folder in X so I don't clutter it up with backups of my girlfriend's Mac (using Carbon Copy Cloner)? In 9, you just click on the drive icon and then click share.
Not so simple in X or am I missing something?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
If I understand you right you want to share the home directory of your Sawtooth over the network and be able to have it as your home directory on another Mac and on a Windows PC. For this you need Mac OS X Server v.10.3. 10.2 Server will do it but the Windows integration part will take a lot more work and steps. 10.3 Server will support it out of the box when it ships.
