To be honest, I'm not sure... as I haven't messed with it a whole let yet.
One thing you can do to get to the Sharing preferences is from the Web
Interface screen. (Like if you kick the workstation into Web Server mode).
I know that's sort of a round-about way of doing it, but I haven't
incorporated the "automatic" ODBC configuration since the ODBC plug-in is
just a "technology preview" at this point.
