No, not that sort.
In WIn98, IIRC, it used to be possible to password-protect drives, folders and files. Now I have a WXP network and all I can find is allow users to access my drive or not. I can find password-protection nowhere. I know that there is a difference between having the drives formatted FAT32 or NTFS, and that mine were converted from FAT32 to NTFS (as opposed to being formatted NTFS on installation), but my wife's laptoop has never been FAT32 and that looks identical to mine.
Can anyone give me pointers to how I can control the sharing of my drives and folders, beyond all or nothing.
All help gratefully received.
Cheers
Steve
