If I run Everything from the desktop, on a separate machine,all files appear when I connect to the ETP server. If I then shutdown Everything and install it as a service, when I connect with the client, no files show up.
I have tried very combination I can think of, separate Everything folders (as suggested), same folders, instances, and nothing allows the client to see a file list on the server.
There is no user name or password set up.
I am using the default port.
I am indexing the entire drive.
There are no entries in the log file other that service started and service ended.
What could I be doing wrong?

Everything has 2 types of services, The Everything service (which you can configure through Menu:Tools > Options > General ) and the Everything Client Service, which is used to run your ETP Server "as a service".
Which one did you configure?

Please try temporarily disabling the client service, make sure appdata is disabled and indexes are set correctly before restarting the client service:
- From a command prompt, navigate to your Everything.exe:
CD c:\everything - Disable the client service:
everything -uninstall-client-service - Make sure Everything is not running (Right click the Everything system tray icon and click Exit)
- Run Everything:
everything - In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options
- Click the General tab.
- Uncheck Store settings and data in %APPDATA%\Everything
- Click the NTFS tab.
- Make sure the desire NTFS volumes are included.
- Click OK.
- Exit Everything (Right click the Everything system tray icon and click Exit)
- In the command prompt, reinstall the client service:
everything -install-client-service
