Simple file sharing xp asking password


















Is it possible?? Thanx in Advance TrueBuckeye Most valuable "member". Joined Dec 6, Messages 6, Try this, first off disable simple file sharing. Create a folder that you want to share. Right click, properties. Go to the sharing tab and share the folder.

Go to the permissions and make sure that the "everyone" group has full rights. Now go to the security tab. Remove all users execpt the local admin account and the remote account that you created. Now only users logged on locally as admins or that specific user can get into that folder. The reason you keep full rights to everyone in the share permissions is due to the fact that you only need either share or ntfs permissions on any folder.

It wouldn't hurt to use both, but then it greatly complicates matters. Standard MS procedures is to give everyone share permissions and then use the ntfs permissions to actually control rights since ntfs has a much more granular level of control than share permissions. Thanx very much for the reply Click to expand Originally posted by KamaL Thanx very much for the reply But I didn't understand a simple step: Where is this tab found??? I simply don't understand where it is I need other people to access a folder on my hard drive.

The easiest way I imagine is file simple sharing, but I need the folder to be password protected Sep 15, 2, 0 20, 0. Turn off simple file sharing if you have xp pro. Go to the share permissions and make it so only administrators, you, and that one user you created have permission to access that folder.

Do the same under security. Any other ideas? All the machines are logged on a Novell network, and share the same Windows workgroup. No domains at all. Ick, novell Sorry, brings back bad memories It's been a while since I last delt with novell but I'd say that is probably working against you in this situation. The method I told you above "should" work in an ideal situation. You must log in or register to reply here. Post thread.

Question How to make hdmi connect to dgpu instead of igpu for external monitor? Question How much space does motherboard takes? Can XP be configured with having the same file sharing configuration as Window No user listing need to be define, and straight create file sharing with read or full Control and just need key in password to login.

If you tick the box the next time that you access the Share you will not be asked to provide credentials. So in order to share the file within workgroup in Window XP we have to know all the available users in a corporate and create account based on the users available and give the rights accordingly.

Is it correct for what I define. Only straight access without password prompting is the way. Can I say like that. If the connection is saved they won't be prompted. I can't make it any simpler.
