4 Select the Share this Folder option.
5 Type a name in the Share Name field to iden-
tify this share. This name can be anything, but it
is probably easiest if you use the name of the
shared volume.
6 Select any other options in this dialog.
7 Click OK to share this volume.
You are now ready to mount this shared volume
on another computer. See “Cross-Mounting
Shared Media Storage on a Remote System” on
page 98.
To share a Windows XP volume that resides on a
workgroup:
1 On the Windows XP computer containing the
volume you want to share, double-click My
Computer.
2 Right-click the volume that you want to share,
and select Sharing and Security.
3 In the Properties dialog, click the Sharing tab.
You should share the entire volume if possi-
ble and not just individual folders. This
makes it easier for you to re-link files in your
Pro Tools session.
When you manually copy files from a Mac
volume to a mounted Windows XP volume,
a “ghost” file appears for each file that you
copy. The ghost file has a nearly identical
name to the original file, except that it is
prefixed with the characters
._ and a greyed
out icon. For example, copying the filename
Macintosh.doc would create another file
called
._Macintosh.doc. These files do not
affect anything and can be deleted without
causing any issues.
