[QUOTE="billnot, post: 396543, member: 176016"] You create the share on your PC. I'm going to assume you're using Windows XP. Right click on the start menu, select Explore, and navigate to the directory you wish to share (i.e. the one you want the Dreambox to use for recording). Right click it and select Properties. One of the tabs is Sharing. Tick "share this folder on te network" and also tick "allow network users to share my files". To create a new user, go into the Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Computer Management, Local Users and Groups. Then create the new user Dream. If you're following my instructions for /etc/fstab, don't give this user a password. If you don't want the user to show at boot time, you'll need to modify a registry entry, but maybe that's a step too far at the moment That's the basics; if you want to know more you'll need to read up on Windows shares and users for yourself - it will be well worth it.
