Hi Steve,

Thanks for that. I found the "net config ..." command after I made the post (typical!) but having checked the status found that it was set to "not hidden". I tried hiding it (completed successfully), then un-hiding it (again message confirmed 'completed successfully) and I've left it over the weekend to 'work through the system'. Still no sign of it in Network Places. Any ideas?

Cheers,

Brian.
