Hello there,

We have six pcs networked, have just upgraded to windows
xp pro and we cannot work out how to password protect
shared folders so that only some of the pcs can access
them.

We can share them to everyone or prevent access to
everyone but we cannot share them to some pcs.

Have looked at users and workgroups but cannot work it
out. It was so simple in 98. ANyone got any suggestions?

Thanks
