Default Disk sharing in a workgroup

Hi,

I have a shared disk of a machine in a workgroup. I can read the disk but I
cannot write to it from other machines, due to no access rights. I have
tried to give "Everyone" full rights on that disk, but it doesn't work. What
else do I need to configure?

Thanks & regards,
John

In the security tab select users, and give users permission to write.

I have tried it already. But the users are on another machine and are not
listed there.

OK, I have got it! Giving access rights to Everybody in the disk properties
doesn't work for shares. If I give it in the disk's shares persmissions, as
you told it, it works. Thanks!
