Arbeitsgruppen Passwort (Workgroup Password)

Post by Anakin »

Hello
I have a win xp.
And this PC is connected with a Network.
I want that everybody who wants to go on the Arbeitsgruppe(workgroup) to enter a Password.
Hidden/Spoiler:
Auf deutsch mein Englisch ist nicht so gut:
also ich habe win xp und der computer ist in einem Netzwerk über ruter und modem Verbunde. Ich möchte, dass wenn einer von einem anderen PC auf die Freigegebenen Ordner zugreift ein Passwort eingeben muss. Ist das möglich?? Ich weiß das es bei win 7 geht.
EDIT
can't me help anyone??

Hm, I can't seem to find anything about it. Maybe it's not possible.
Are you connecting to the network wirelessly? If so, the other option would be to just put a password on the wireless.

Well in order to access the workgroup, one must type in the name of the workgroup, correct? So can't you just use that as a sort of password?
It's not like someone can search for available workgroups on the network (at least I don't think you can).

There is kind of a way, but it is more shared security related than workgroup itself. What is the actual purpose for this and what type of xp (home, pro, or MCE)?
