Ok, some now are probably thinking what <insult deleted> created a share on their root directory?
But if you're really into shooting yourself in the foot and exposing your entire system to ransomeware (which several IBM i shops have been totally debilitated within the last year because of this) then ensure you have a share set up on /root. You have to define it. A popular way to look for shares is using http://youribmi:2001 and looking at IFS and shares. For the GUI phobic there may be some way to use GO NETS.
