I have a shared drive on my family home network. I want to set the
permissions so that only my desktop PC and my laptop will have access
to my personal folder on the shared drive but I'm having trouble
adding network users to the security tab in XP. I can only see local
users & groups in the tab.
Can anyone shed some light?
Thanks

"Network users"? What exactly do you mean by adding "network users?" From a
domain?
Do you have an AD domain running at home? If so, is your XP workstation
joined to the domain? If it is, you can view users from the domain. If it is
not joined, the only option you have is to add local users. You'll have to
come up with a username and password for each user you want to allow to
connect and add them.
