Restore a missing Sharing preference pane
Authored by: l1n3u5 on Nov 10, '07 01:32:51AM

Mine disappeared during the Leopard install:
Tried the hint to install ARD, no luck.
Tried the hint to rm ~/Library/Caches/.*pref.* , no luck.

nothing worked. so I did the following.
1) logged into my other mac running 10.5
2) tar'd up the prefpane in /System/Library/PreferencePanes
3) scp'd the tarball over to the broken mac
4) mv'd the borked prefpanefile
5) untar'd the copied prefpane
6) opened Sys Prefs and there it was.
