Stopping IBM i NetServer file sharing

You can stop file sharing with other clients.

To stop the sharing of an integrated file system directory, follow these steps:

  1. Open a connection to System i® Navigator on your system.
  2. Expand Network > Servers.
  3. Click TCP/IP to retrieve a list of the TCP/IP servers available.
  4. Right-click IBM® i NetServer and select Open.
  5. Expand Shared Objects.
  6. Right-click a shared file and select Stop Sharing.
Note: A file share that is stopped is still available to all clients that are already using the share. A stopped file share is not available for any new client requests. Any attempts to create a new connection to the stopped share will fail.
