I have yet to get the clients to connect with AC -- must be some sharing problems.
One of the benefit of the wizards is setting up shares. Althogh, a lot of people will tell you otherwise, bypass the Share by using Everyone and that is all. Then use the NTFS permissions to enter domain users. But, first get it shared. One way to tell it to do this with a folder, enter a text file and add something like Test and save it in the folder.
Then access the folder from a client, open the folder, open the text file, open the text file (with something written in it), change the word in it, save it, then delete the text file and delete the folder. If you can do these things, you then have read/write/modify, all you need to get to AC.
By the way, it is easy to share printers. Always install the printer using the driver for the SERVER. Once it is set up, you just browse to the folder. Make sure it has List In Directory set up. If the computer you are trying to share it to, does not use the same drive, e.g. 32-bit driver, you will need to download that driver on the server and add it.
