In order to use Ip filtering you would need static IP's for the 13. I'll
warn you now instead of you finding this out the hardway. All your 13 pc's
are hackable in about 10 seconds. Especially if the pc's can be accessed
from the internet lets hope they can't. I also suppose on the Fat pc
using Auto Login with the screensaver password set to 1 minute is out of the
question? That way the fatpc would boot and zone alarm would start. Then
after 1minute the PC goes to the XP locked screen. Which if you wanted to
see that press the windows key on your keyboard and the L key. Not the best
solution but probably the easiest for you. Also to enable autologin the
easiest is to download tweakui from the Microsoft site, look for powertools
for XP.
To get back to the hacking aspect, all the pc's that use the same
administrator login with no password. The entire contents of each hard
drive are accessible by any of the other 13 pc's or anyone else who connects
with administrator with no password. To do that you just type
\\computername\c$ then you have the entire root of the remote computers
hard drive with full access to all the files.
