Default Signing Out Of Shared Folders

What about setting up a network drive or folder? I presume I can disconnect
from that type of connection?

For the record, I thought I saw a way to disconnect from the network in
Computer Management, but it did not work. The other machine could still
access shared folders.

Regards.

I meant to include: How do I sign-off from the network without closing my
programs and logging off, or rebooting?


You don't. Windows will cache the credentials for resources you have
connected to over the network until you log off, or they no longer allow
access (eg you change the password on a remote share).

Hi all,

I am running XP Home w/SP3, and I have another computer (same OS)
networked together on my LAN. I created a network group for these PCs to
share certain folders and a printer, and I also created a network
password for each machine too.

My concern is, how do you sign-off from the network? I'm not talking
about a network drive here.

Regards.
