On any XP Pro computer, check to see if Simple File Sharing (Control Panel -
Folder Options - View - Advanced settings) is enabled or disabled. With XP Pro,
you need to have SFS consistently set on each computer.
On XP Pro with SFS disabled, check the Local Security Policies (Control Panel -
Administrative Tools). Under Local Policies - Security Options, look at
"Network access: Sharing and security model", and ensure it's set to "Classic -
local users authenticate as themselves".
With Advanced File Sharing (SFS disabled) on computer A, and Classic
authentication, you can permission each individual user archive for that user.
To make this work, you have to setup matching accounts on A, and B or C. If you
setup Jane's accounts on computers A and B, Jane will be able to access her
archives on computer A from computer B.
If you assign identical, non-blank passwords to Jane's accounts on computers A
and B, Jane will be able to access her archives on computer A from her session
on computer B, without entering a password (except when she logs onto computer
B). If the password setup for Jane on computer A does NOT match the password on
computer B, she will have to enter the correct password whenever connecting to
computer A.
If you setup Kane's account on computer C with administrative privileges, Kane
will have administrative access on that computer. If you setup Kane's account
on computer A with administrative privileges, Kane will have administrative
access to computer A, and be able to open Jane's archive. If you setup Kane's
account on computer A with user privileges, Jane's archives will not be
accessible to Kane.
Mike, if his account is setup with administrative privileges there, since he
will be logged onto computer A directly, will have access to everybody's
archives.
Is this the right combination of abilities and restrictions?
