> Hi, I have a windows XP pro box (NTFS) and I'm a part of a small office
environment that has a few windows XP home boxes (fat32). I'm trying to set
up advanced permissions for a shared folder. I've turnoed off the simple
file sharing and I'm trying to setup a shared folder so that some computers
will have access to some of my folders and some networked computers won't. I
was also trying to set it up so that some people can read the contents of a
folder but not alter the contents (AKA Delete) and other networked computers
able to alter the contents of the shared folder (kinda like a server without
a server). When I go to security and try to add a different location, I can
only see my computer and different users on that computer. I was wondering
if I have to change the other computers to windows xp, and NTFS to view them
as other locations. Anyone have any other ideas?
