Giving up on that, I have been dismounting the shared drive, copying

anyone remember how to re-mount a drive in OS 9 without
restarting the
OS? I'd rather have file sharing working, but at least if I could
remount the shared drive that would be something.
My understanding (and based on corresponding reports is displayed at
http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/revolution/tips/env006.htm) is
that
attempting to keep the same volume shared in SheepShaver that's
accessible
in OS X is prone to bugginess and in come cases the corruption of
the shared
volume.
Right, so I was dismounting the volume in SS before working with it
in OS X. It wasn't open in both places at once. The shared volume
didn't corrupt, but I'm tired of having to restart OS 9 to remount
it. I'm just now looking for an OS 9 utility that will mount a
volume but I can't find one. How did we used to do that? Or did we
used to do that? It's been so long I can't remember.
Wasn't there a utility at one time called SCSI Tool? Seems to me it
would unmount or remount any drive. Of course, that would mean that
SS would have to be using SCSI emulation to access drives. Sorry, the
cobwebs are pretty thick in that part of my brain... :-/
