But that explains why he does not have a default C$! ;-)
But that's an security enhancement not a crippling...

Hm, it opens a box, that warn's that it not wise to
share "K:" (My Memory stick drive... argl)
So as with all boxes: "Klick OK".

Too you need to modify the firewall and bind 
"Client for MS networks" and "File and Printer..." to the LAN interface
and remove that bindung from all other.

After that file sharing (at least offerings shares) seems to work.

volume shadow copy services! I was really surprised.
At least there were no complaints...

I tried it some month ago using a script from "rdiff-backup" project..
Would be no problem to use it with backuppc because
both are very near...
