Shadow Copy is not enabled

I have shadow copy enabled on my 2003 Server but for some reason I can not
get this to work on my XP Pro computer.

I had to change Volume Showdow Service from Manual to Automatic and I was
able to start the service. After a reboot the service is running.

I have also installed the Showdow Client Software.

I am unable to get an option for "Configure Shadow Copy" to appear under all
task in Computer Managment/System tools/Shared Folders. All that appears
under "All Task is "Send Console Message"

I have searched for hours on the web and on Microsoft Site and I have not
been able to find a solution for this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Best regards

Sorry but this was not help at all. I am sure that you realy think you are
helping but when someone post here they are looking for an answer not "Search
here".

If you read my post I has already said I had searched for hours trying to
resolove this issue.

But thank you for the thought any how.
