I forgot to mention that
I read some were on internet
that to Share external HD... the HD should be format on Mac Os Plus
I fist has my HDs in NTFS format (I use it on PC)
then I format the HD to FAT32 so I can use it on Mac and PC
I don't format the drive to Mac Os Plus becouse I'm afraid that I Can't acess the HD from
the PCs..

Any Help will be great!
