Here's what i wish to do with my network:-
1. Make a computer(A) as a server by sharing it's folder to network, and also make this computer cannot access to internet.
2. Make 5 computers(B) that can access shared folder at (A) and can see each others in network, but not internet.
3. Make a computer(C) that can go internet, can access the shared folder at (A), but not seeing others computers(B) in network.


I having a router and a switch.

Computer (A) having single port built in MB network card.

You would configure the port the...
Simple way, network them all normally, for the computers you don't want to go on the internet, setup restrictions for them on the router. Here is a sample from Netgrear how to do that http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=4041

For the computer you want online but not seeing other computers, setup a VLAN for it using a managed switch and setup a routing table or it so it can still reach the server but not the other computers.

Thanks a lot for the reply, appreciate it much!!

I am still wandering with vlan now, currently not familiar with it,
If making into two groups, A cannot view B and vice versa,
Where should i put the server into and view-able for both groups?
 


You would configure the port the server is on with a routing table to be able to send the data to the vlans. http://www.informit.com/library/content.aspx?b=CCNP_Studies_Switching&seqNum=47

It's actually a pretty basic configuration for a network person (which I am NOT LOL), I just know roughly about how it needs to be setup, not exactly how.
