[Chester LUG] Sharing a drive

[Michael Crilly]

Sounds like a job for a NAS setup - Network Attached Storage. You'd have to
configure a NAS deamon on the machine the USB drive is plugged into and then
have that NAS mount/offer the USB drive as a networkable mount point - or
something to this effect. I've never done it my self but I have read it is
possible.
