You know, right > click on the folder and choose Sharing and Security. Right.... the "server" here is both a physical machine (your "PC box") and a service running on that machine to share files. That software uses a protocol called SMB. So, you haven't answered my question: why can only some clients connect and others not? >>> So I must to copy my shared folders to another PC box because for >>> those pupils who can't access my shared folders on the first PC box. >> >> Uh, that doesn't sound right.

This seems like a lot of work for no discernible gain. WebDAV really sucks compared to SMB from the typical user's perspective. >> If you really want to write something like this, we can help you.
