Hi!

Currently we have at my parents home 3 computers. one
Win98 laptop and Win2000 workstation for my dad, and one
win2000 for my brother. Dad can not share files from the
win2000 to the laptop without my brother seeing them
(permissions...)

Now, update is planned, and since win2000 is not
available, I have to go with WinXP.

The question is: how do I do that with WinXP? I have no
clue as I'm not going to buy win server there to get
domain, but without that WinXP offers no permissions no
matter if it's WinXP Pro or Home. So how to get the
permissions back, so that can be done?

Harri
