    Hi, after quite a lot of google search i cant find solution to this...

    i would like to password protect some of the drives in my server so that only one computer in the house can access those particular drives.

    i think in windows server is simple but i need to use windows xp as my my system is not very powerfull.

    the problem i think is that in the server there is only 1 user called (htpc1) and in my computer i have user (gixxer)

    but if i create more users in the server it adds boot trouble plus uses space.

    can someone help me? when i get to the sharing screen in xp i am able to grant access to users in that computer but not users in other computers of the network.



    thanks alot, i have wasted so many hours trying to find how to do this !!!!:D

    any idea if it is at all possible?

    noone uses their server to store backups they dont want ALL network computers to access?
