OP2001 0 Posted December 3, 2001 Hi, i've searched for entries to this topic, but didn't find any. How can i set a username and a password for a certain share without enabling the guest-account, so that, if a win98-computer accesses my XP-Computer, a mask with username and password is openened. Thanks ahead!! Share this post Link to post
OP2001 0 Posted December 4, 2001 Is is correct, that you can only encrypt files under NTFS? But if i've got to use NTFS, Win98 won't be able to read it !?! Share this post Link to post

OP2001 0 Posted December 6, 2001 Hi, actually you're not able to set passwords for encrypted files, because these files just belong to their "Encryptor", so there's no necessity for a password. If you're are not the Encryptor you can also view the file, but yu're not able to open it and not asked for a username/password to do so. Creating user-accounts on my PC similar to those on the Win98-Clients won't work, cause we've got 16 PCs in our network and the other Users won't tell me their passwords (of course).

insaNity 0 Posted December 6, 2001 note: you have to copy/paste the full line above or its a broken link still haven't found a way to have guest access to some shares, and password others (like win9x) will look into it properly tomorrow Share this post Link to post
