I agree this is a significant piece of GS/OS development. I watched Stephen's presentation from KansasFest last night and noticed he was running his 'GS' with GSPlus on a Mac, and was able to access his shares on the same Mac. Very nice. It seems seamless, too.

{As an aside, I'll say it was nice to see the KansasFest audience openly applaud Stephen for his work}.

So, I've been attempting to do something similar on Windows 10 with David Schmidt's GSPort and its emulated Uthernet.

I've downloaded and installed Ewen's updated v1.0.5 link layer (hat tip to Ewen - the man still rocks), installed Bonjour for Windows and tried to make a connection.

Here's the 'wall' that I'm up against -- It appears that Windows 10 *Home* doesn't have a built-in SMB 3 server, only a built-in SMB 3 client.

It does offer the deprecated SMB 1 server option, but the SMB FST won't work with that.

So, any and all suggestions are hereby solicited, short of upgrading to Windows 10 *Pro*. I tolerate Windows out of necessity -- I'm not a fan.

Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks.
