Lanwench, how do you set the NTFS permission on a file. Do you use
win explorer?

Yes.

Do you create a hidden share by putting a "$" at the
end of the path?

In the share properties, yes.

and how do you disable "Simple File Sharing".

In Win Explorer - tools | folder options | view ....untick the box. You can
do this only in XP Pro, not Home.

Thanks for your help!....

XP Pro x64 SP2

Actually let me re-phase that. I have a shared directory on my
small business network main pc (XP Pro x64). I really don't want
it shared to everyone except my developers.

The share permissions are one thing - but the more important
permissions are the NTFS ones. I tend to leave the share permissions
wide open, and control access to the data via NTFS permissions. I
also like to create shares as hidden (e.g., C:\Data\Developers would
be shared as \\computername\developers$ ).

In Win2K Pro I can give access right to certain users (Developers).
I can't find the same type of property interface w/the security tap
that will allow me to set the access rights to this drive on x64.

Disable Simple File Sharing.

How can you define a group access rights. I created a new group

to the system.
For instance, I have a dynamic compress hd create by the Admin and
no other group can access this drive, but I only want the users in
my Development group to have access. BUT, I don't wont to give
Admin powers to my developer.

Thus, bring me to this question on how to customize a group. In
fact, how do you find the detailed access rights information on
any group. The properties value of the group just shows who's in
the group, but no information how group it self is defined.

Are you talking about a standalone WinXP workstation (wanting to
control access to it at the console itself), or access to one
across the network? What version of XP? Home or Pro?
