sharing offline files... is it possible?

[Guest Ian Bethell]

have a network drive on my vista x64 business machine that is available

offline.

 

Am I able to "Share" this drive, and/or its folders somehow? so that other

people on my network can read it?

Is the drive physically connected to the particular computer

you're referring to and have a drive letter assigned? Is it

a SAS, or SATA, or IDE, or a NAS drive? Exactly what do you

mean "have a network drive on my vista x64" business machine?

 

Or, is it connected somewhere else?

I tried once with disastrous consequences.

I moved csc (where the offline files are kept) in another disk and tried to

have the same csc with others windows installations.

Completely mess....

If there is a way, I would like to know it.

No. You can copy the offline files to a locally attached HD and then share

them out from there, but you can't do a gateway share.
