Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.setup (More info?)
I am a have a laptop that I use in two settings:
1) At home on my home network that has two other computers
and is connected via either wirless LAN or ethernet. I
don't have a domain set up for this network.
2) At some public access point such as my hotel room,
starbucks, etc.
Each one has a slightly different use case:
1) At home, I want every computer on the network to have
access to the information on the hard drive and vice-versa.
2) At the hotel or starbucks, I don't want anyone to get
access to the information on my machine.
Question #1: How do I do this? I had a general Windows
system administrator spend 1 hour trying to figure this
out and couldn't.
Question #2: How do I use Outlook 2000 from any one of
those two profiles and see the same information no
matter which profile I use?
I just installed my palm software on the laptop and
uploaded all the info from the palm to the laptop. Now I
can only see the contact info if I am logged in to the
user profile that I was logged in to when I installed the
palm desktop! (and when I look under the start menu on one
of the other profiles, I can't even see the palm desktop
software!)
It seems as though this should be pretty simple, but for
some reason it isn't very intuitive.
HELP!
Thanks,
John
