ABSTRACT:
A local computer sends out mount requests to remote computers for identifying folders or files that are available for sharing (shares). The local computer sends out the mount requests without previously discovering if the folders or files exist or are available for sharing on the remote computers. Any of the folders or files that are successfully mounted are identified as available for sharing.
