Hi
Client of mine has got windows 2008 server as a standalone PC (no domain) with username: server and password : fake
And he has 5 other PCs (XP Profe SP3) on the same LAN
PC1, username : forum1,password : work1
PC2, with username: forum2, password:work2
PC3, with username: forum3, password:work3
PC4, with username: forum4, password:work4
PC5, with username : forum5, password:work5
Windows 2008 has got a folder to be shared with PC1, PC2, PC3,,,,not PC4 nor PC5
I know how to share the folder if I use option Everyone Under Properties > Sharing > Advanced Sharing > Permissions > Add > Everyone ,,,,,,and I know how to use the option Public Folder which is located %SystemDrive%\User\Public
With Everyone option PC4 and PC5 would be able to get access to the shared folder
Now my question if I do not want to use "Everyone" option , I have to create additional three local accounts on the server which are ( username : forum1,password : work1 ) and ( username: forum2, password:work2 ) and ( username: forum3, password:work3 )
Those username then will be able to login to the server which I do not want that to happen. Is this what suppose to be in such scenario ?
Thanks
