350762	2005-04-30 09:18:00	Setting up a network of 3 PCs with XP Home and notice that there isn't any 'Permissions' tab to assign rights . For example, I (Computer A) want to share this Folder with Computer B & Computer C but only allow Computer C to read only this folder but Computer B will have rights to read and edit the contents . Is there a way to get around this problem? Cheers	bk T (215)
350763	2005-04-30 09:28:00	Did u enable file and printing sharing? Did u make a folder and share it??? Not share the whole hdd on each PC??? Are all hdd's formatted in NTFS?? And I think u have to untick simple file sharing in Home to get the permissions tab . BUT I dont think Home has the file sharing option at all . Only Pro has .	Speedy Gonzales (78)

And I think u have to untick simple file sharing in Home to get the permissions tab . BUT I dont think Home has the file sharing option at all . Only Pro has . It is NTFS formatted and have "Shared" the 'Folder' I also notice that another XP Pro machine (connected to another Network) does not have this "Permissions" option . There must be somewhere to turn this on . I am pretty sure because another XP Pro machine has this option . Cheers	bk T (215)

If its ticked, you dont have to add a networked pc as a guest . If this isnt there at all . You can't use it . Unless u go into safe mode first . With Pro u dont have to .	Speedy Gonzales (78)
