If you explicitly disable "simple file sharing" on a computer running
XP Professional, then anyone who wants to access your shared resources
over the network needs to log on with a user account that also exists
on your computer -- same user name and password. For full details:


Wouldn't that be the usergroup has to have privileges in the
domain/workgroup?

Eg, Username John is in the same workgroup and that workgroup is authorised
on the first machine?
