Re: peer to peer network help needed

Easy to do with static IP addressing and a decent firewall. You can then use trusted addressing rules and keep the ones you don't want off the trusted list. Quite simple to do with only 4 computers.

I have four computers on a peer to peer (home office) network (same workgroup)
let's call them A1, A2, B1 and C1
C1 contains files that need to accesible to all users on all computers.(they are in a shared directory, works fine)
A2 has files that needs to be accesible only to A1 (read and write) (if I just share the directories, they are visible by B1 and C1 as well what I do not want)
can I do this with a peer to peer network?
If yes how do I do this?
If not, the reason why I want to share them is because A2 is a backup PC for A1 and I want to be able to easily synchronize my data (I have a great sync program) Is there another way to do this?
