We are running AppleShare IP 6.1 with Mac OS 8.5 and have Windows file
sharing enabled.

Two of our PC users were unable to save, retrieve files etc. from the file
server. When I further investigated the problem, even though Window's file
sharing was enabled in the set up panel, it was showing as not enabled in
the status panel on the web and file server. The previous night's back up
(using Retrospect) did not run as well with a network communication error.

I then did a restart of the server hoping to reinitialize communications,
that is when I received the flashing question mark. Even though everything
seems to be stable now, I do not feel comfortable about the flashing
question mark.

Any help/guidance concerning a flashing question mark on startup would be
greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
