Yeah, that's what we did last night, and we kept getting the 1/9 error
(two different remote machines, a small handful of different
subdirectories).
Just flailing: Is there something special about how your share out the
directory on the the remote machine? Are you in a workgroup or domain?
Simple file sharing? Special DNS/NetBIOS/DHCP settings? Maybe we have
a firewall issue on one or both of our machines.
