Iam trying to password protect computers from other pepole seeing on
the network. Accounting clicks on sales and can see all there data.
On widows 2000 when this happens they are aksed to enter a user name
and password. How do I do this on WindowsXP professional service packe
2.

Make user groups, assign permissions accordingly, and add the desired to
users to the groups. IOW, make a user group called "Accounting" and
only give read/write permissions to selected users, who will be members
of the Accounting group. The "Sales" group (which you will have made
and to which you will have added users) won't be able to access
"Accounting's" files. Don't forget to include yourself (presumably
Administrator) in the groups!
