I thought that what I had to do to make file sharing possible was to make
sure all the computers were in the same workgroup. Vice versa, to not allow a
computer share to be seen, just make a computer on the network part of a
different workgroup. But lo and behold, I had a pc that wasn't in my
workgroup but in the local network access my shares.
I was hoping someone could explain or point out how I can seperate the
computers so that some can share with some and not with others, like 2
computers in one group that can share with each other and 2 computers in
another group that share but that can't access that first sharing group. Is
this possible in XP?
What the heck is the point of workgroups if they see everything anyways?
Thanks in advance!
