Password-less network share.

[BlueBottle]

Hi folks,

Just a quick question that a friend has asked.... (Honest!)

Between a group of Win2K machines, can a network share be setup between
two machines were the person can connect (to the other machine) with a
username, but does not need a password?
I ask because as someone changes their password, won't they have a
username_password window request pop up when they reboot?

Thanks.
Bob.

Thanks for that.
What about if I want to restrict access to the drive by having a list of
authorised users? Does each user then need a password?
Does this password have to be the same as their Win logon password?

Thanks for the help.
Bob.
