Best Answer: you can do that.. 1.system 1 must have username and password. 2.right click the folder you want to share it and click properties 3.go to sharing tab and click "share this folder" 4.click permission and remove evryone 5.click add and enter the user that having password on system1 6.logoff system1 and try good luck - Amer S

you cannot filter the sharing. when you enable the sharing of the folder, all the computers in that workgroup will see it. if you create multiple workgroups may fix it, but if you have one computer able to see both workgroups will undo it all. a work around would be to download a folder lock program and put password on the folder, - chezzrob
