I have two PC linked together and under the same workgroup. When I share
a folder from a PC(computer A), I can access the shared folder directly
from computer B, without any authentication(i.e. no need to type in
login id and password to access computer A). How can I set both of the
PC so that authentication is required before accessing the share
folder?
i.e, I want to log in the computer in the network before accessing
their shared folder. is it necessary to change the group policy?
Thanks!!
