Problem with NTFS network shares on Mac

[SNAG]

Hi all,

Have got a problem with NTFS network shares running on Yosemite:

There are 2 NTFS drives (both external drives) on my Mac which I've enabled in my File Sharing.

I've got a new Thinkpad in the family. On my Thinkpad, I can access the Mac WINBIOS name, but I can only access the Public Folder share, and nothing else. Clicking on the other shares just does nothing (e.g. the status bar runs but nothing happens). I can't even access the native Mac drive folder (HFS system).

I've tried removing all these shares, but the weird thing is that these shares still show up on the Wintel machines. Have reformatted the Mac but still the same problem.

Any idea what's going on? I'm using Paragon NTFS to enable read-write.

Did you add the drives under the Shared Folders section in System Preferences > Sharing > File Sharing? Also, check the user permissions set as well under the Users section.
