[QUOTE="Discerptor, post: 265976, member: 12177"] Okay, so I decided to enable sharing of stuff over a network with my PowerBook. When I tried to access it from another computer, it prompted for a username and password, so I used the account's password. My main problem is that now it does NOT ask for the password on that computer anymore, and I really would prefer that it did. So my first question is how to make the Windows computer stop being able to just access my stuff freely, while keeping sharing an option. My second question is how to make it so that other computers on the network can access stuff on my computer without entering any password from specific shared folders. I guess that would be it. Thanks in advance, guys. [/QUOTE]
