Hi all,

I know that in a workgroup, security options are more restricted but
yesterday I tried to give access of a folder to a user (or group) of another
computer in the workgroup:
computerName\UserName

But it did not accept. Am I missing anything? Is it possible at all to do
such a thing?

Thanks in advance
Ali
