NAS drives
I hope this is the right forum.
I'm helping a friend with setting up his home network. He has two desktop PC's; one running Vista the other running Windows 7. Had a bit of difficulty getting the windows 7 PC accessing shared folders on Vista PC (but not the other way) but this has been resolved. I'm left now with one issue and that relates to the Network Attached Storage (NAS) device that has been connected to his router. What is required is a way to prevent or block access to this drive from his daughters laptop which is running Windows 7. He wants her to have internet access of course but not be able to access his to desktop PC's or NAS drive. Her laptop is in a different workgroup to his desktops which takes care of desktop PC access. How does one go about preventing access to the NAS drive ?? |
