Setting a password on shared folders

Expand Post »

Hi,

I am quite new to the world of computers and am looking for some advice.

I have a Server which is networked to 5 other machines. On this server we have private databases etc and i would like to password specific folders or indeed the whole hard drive of the server so only the said machines can access the server.

I don't have a clue where to start.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

many thanks
Oli
