Hi Matthew, I've seen this happen on Servers when the permissions are in conflict. That is, if you've set the permissions of the parent so that the Others group have No Access, or a some other configuration where even an Admin user doesn't see all the Shares. do you use ACLs or simply the POSIX permission protocols? I normally don't share the entire drive anyway, just specific folders on each drive. It usually makes more reliable and secure access.
