Is it possible to share just a firewire hd that is connected to my mac through a network? I do not want to share any of my other files, just the hard drive.

For the life of me, I can't figure it out. Any help is appreciated.


Thanks,
Jonas

Via what protocol(s) do you want to share the drive? AFP, SMB, NFS? This dictates how to proceed.

The drive is connected to my mac which is in turn connected to the network, so I guess it's AFP. I just need to have other macs access the drive without giving them admin rights to my computer.

I'll check out sharepoints. Thanks for the input.

Sharepoints worked like a charm. Perfect for my uses so far.

Thanks!
