Chuck,

Computer 1 = XP Pro
Computer 2 and 3 = XP Home
Computer 4 = Win98SE

All are networked, peer to peer, through a Linksys Router.

Recent occurance.....first time attempting.

Computers 4 and 2 need read/write privileges of the user's personal
documents on Computer 1. Documents are created by user of Computer 1
but must be able to be maintained by users of computer 1,2, or 4.

Each user has a user ID and passsword on each computer.

What other info may I provide?

Regards,

Buck
