I have an external hard drive plugged into the USB port of my AEBS. When I run the Airport Utility I can see the disk listed and I have set it to allow sharing. This is, however, the only place I can find the hard drive. How am I supposed to access it with my computer?
The only access I have to my AEBS is via the AirPort utility as well. I have pinged the address (10.0.1.1) and it does respond. However, I'm unable to find it on my network via the address.
I apologize if I'm missing the obvious here, but I'm not sure what I need to do to access the drive. Also I think I saw a reference somewhere to the disk needing to be formatted in the FAT32 protocol. Is that accurate or is NTFS ok?
