Hi all!!
I have a question for you.
My computer belongs to a LAN network and I would like to share my C: drive
in it, and that's quite to achive. My prob is that I do not wanna allow
everybody to access my data. So I was thinking of a password promt. How do I
do that? How do I set up a password for my C: drive being accessable from
the network?

Thanks

Fab
 
XP uses the concept of user level security, not password level security.
Just share the drive. Place the user accounts of the people who you want to
permit in the list.
 
It sounds a bit weird to me that I can't set up a password to my shared
driver in a way that who knows the password acces the driver!
