I have a network of four XP Professionals.


I have unticked "Simple" security in Folders>View, so that I can access the
shared and security tabs on the folder properties.

I have set up sharing successfully, except that all the computers on the
network can access my shared folder and I only want one of them to access
it.

When I set the permissions of a folder, all I see in the Groups and Users is
Everyone. Do I have to set up a group or user that is the computer that
needs access to this folder? If so, how?

Any help gratefully appreciated.
