Workgroup filesharing
Is it possible to grant a local user of one machine, access to a resourse on another machine but only to them...not using the "everyone" group?
For example: machine name: WS01 local username: Tom machine name: WS02 local username: Harry I want tom to be able to access a share on WS02, but I don't want to allow anyone else in the workgroup to be able to access the share. Is this possible?

not positive on xp-home, but on the pro version yes you can, just set the file sharing on the folder you want to share and then set the security settings for that user.

I have the file shared but how do I view the local user accounts for the remote machine? At the moment I can only see the user accounts on the local machine. |

Still a little stuck on this one.
One machine will prompt for a password and I have to use an account local to that machine to access the files. The other machine allows me immediate access without even prompting. |
