Yes, I was able to find this. The error is "the server service was unable
to load the server driver"

Steve,
I have the same problem as above and tried your fix. I got the following
response: The server service could not be started. A system error has
occurred. System error 2 has occurred. The system cannot find the file
specified.

I am attempting to set up a network the same as the originator of this
post,
i.e., with 2wiregateway. I will be trying to share files and external
hard
drive from my ethernet connected PC to my new Macbook. Any advice on this
would be helpful as well.

Thanks,
DKM

Can’t get the machine to let me set ‘sharing’ for a folder. It
produces the
error message; “An error occurred while trying to share FOLDERNAME. The

I can't decipher what that error message is telling me.

Anyone have any suggestions about how to proceed ??

ps I am trying to set up file & printer sharing with my Mac, running
10.5.6, over my wireless network created by a 2Wire DSL modem.

To start the Server service:

1. Open a command prompt window: Start All Programs Accessories
Command Prompt.

2. Type this line at the prompt, then press Enter:

net start server

Make sure that "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks" is
enabled in the properties for the LAN connection.
