Default Remote Desktop - How to access the remote drive locally ?

Ron,

File sharing, if you're on the same LAN.


Yeah, I also thought of that one. Apart from the LAN requirement, not the
solution I was looking for. The fewer services active and ports open to
the outside world the better. Apart from having to deal with enabeling and
disabeling that extra service seperatily every time.

Regards,
Rudy Wieser

Hello All,

I would like to copy some files to and from the Remote Desktop connected
computer to the local one. Point is that I want to share the remote

drive
with the local computer, not the other way around (local drive sharing

with
remote computer).

How do I do this ? Google only seems to have info about the latter
method.

If that is not possible, is there any way to limit the remote computer

in
what it can access on the local one (like only giving it access to a

single
folder) ?

Regards,
Rudy Wieser


File sharing, if you're on the same LAN.
In My Computer, click a folder, then click Share This Folder.
Ignore the wizard, Just Share Anyway.
You can allow remote write or not.
