Folder Protection

[Mark]

Is there a way to protect a folder from everyone's view
except the author in Win 2000?

Thanks.

In W2K, you will need to be using ntfs file system which allows you to assign user
and group permissions to files and folders. If a user does not have any ntfs
permissions either by user account or group membership, then they can not access the
folder/files. Keep in mind that the exception is any user that is a local
administrator can take ownership of any file/folder on the computer and grant
themselves permissions. --- Steve

same for W2K.
