Hi everyone,
My laptop is installed with basic Windows Vista setup. I am connected to a internal network. Sharing folders work fine, but I want to share the user folder and that to in such a way that the remote users should be asked for a username and password. So, to start with I set the permissions of the user folder so that only the administrators and authenticated users can access the folder. Before Vista I had Windows XP pro, I used to follow the same procedure to access a users folder and when I clicked on the folder I would get an authentication dialogue box, then I used to enter the user name and password and access the folder. But this is not working with my Vista Home edition. A few days before my friend told me that even the Windows XP Home Edition has the same problem. I just want to know that is this the restriction of a Home Edition or am I doing something wrong to access the folder? Any help or suggestion will be appreciated.
