Here is scenario...

Have oustide users who do not logon to domain (logon on standard
administrator account for pc). What we would like to do is allow them access
to a shared folder, where they would then have only access to one other
folder within that folder. I know this is possible when logged into domain,
but can it be allowed outside? and how can it be done?

Next question is whether or not the other folders can be made visible to
outside users (for example TestUser1 can only see folder Test1 and TestUser2
can only see folder Test2). I know permissions can be set and securities that
do not allow access, but we would like to have them not visible if possible?

Any help and insight is greatly appreciated, Thank you!
