Hi,

I'm trying to configure a small network (1 x XP Pro (NTFS) + 2 x XP Home).
The run OK in a single workgroup with 'Simple File Sharing' enabled on the
Pro.

I want to restrict the access to the folders on the Pro, and I've disabled
'Simple File Sharing'.

How do I enter the usernames from the two Home computers, so they have
access to the folders on the Pro?

Thanks in advance
