re: cancel file sharing for particular files Friday, March 3, 2006 at 5:03 pm Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Steve Dunn (925 messages posted) You can only share/unshare drives, folders and printers - not individual files. So unshare the folder(s) the problem files are in? You might want to check out network settings (eg, that NICs are set to full speed - usually full duplex - as xp & 2k with no other machines should be a fast connection - assuming 100mbs connection at least). Individual files don't usually cause a problem (unless they are huge).
