Is it possible with XP Home to share a folder with ONLY a
selected set of other computers/users on the network? A
friend has a network with 7 XP Pro systems, and 2 XP Home
systems. He wants to share a folder on one XP Home system
with the other XP Home system, but he doesn't want the XP
Pro systems to be able to access the share. If not, will
upgrading the Home to Pro address this requirement ?

Thanks
