NTFS Security, but keep in mind that this is going to be "light" security
(i.e. if either or both of your users are determined and have more than a
couple of brain cells to rub together, they'll figure out how to circumvent
you. Physical access is *everything*)
What you're going to do is, basically, set permissions on a couple of
local folders such that user A has no access to folder B, and user B has no
access to folder A. Add appropriate rights per user to their own folders,
and you're just about done.
You can play around with mapping them to "local" home directories if you
want, depending on how clever you want to get.
Most of what you need to start all this fun, will be found when you
right-click a "target" folder and choose "properties," from there find the
"permissions" tab and just go crazy with the old "help" key.
Note: if you are not using NTFS for the local disk, this is going to be a
lot uglier... There are some ways you can try to "trick" users into seeing
locally mapped (i.e. "EQU") shares, and not being able to see the root of
the drive it's mapped to, etc. - but it gets ugly, best bet is use NTFS if
you need local file security.
Hope this helps! :)
