Require password to access shared folder on other computer
Vista SP2
I have a small home network, with shared document folders on each computer. How do I configure the share to require someone from computer A to enter a password when accessing the shared folder on computer B? Thanks! Ken Isaacson SILENT COUNSEL, a legal thriller www.KenIsaacson.com
