I have a home workgroup setup with one XP Pro client and two 2000Pro
clients. I'm trying to allow the XP client to act as a shared drive for the
2000's, while at the same time allowing 2000-A to access a personal backup
share while keeping 2000-B from being able to access the same share.

I see where using NTFS to allow users to access drives seems to be the way
to go, but I can only get local PC users to show up which blocks both 2000s.
If I add the USERS group, I let them both in.

Could someone point me at a FAQ that would tell me how do what I'm wanting
to do? (the old 98 password on a folder use to do the trick, but I don't
think you can enable that in XP).

Is there a way to add other PC user to the users on XP (i.e. \\XP1\user1 &
\\2000-A\user2)?

Thanks,
Mike
