Hello group,
I am using Windows XP SP2 on a local network with quite a lot "unfriendly" users. Can you tell me how to set password on my Shared Folders(Printer is always shared, don't know how to "unshare" it) and on the Remote Desktop Connection. Or even better how can dissable RDC.

Thank you.

disable RDC is - right click my computer - properties - REMOTE and uncheck remote desktop.

right click on the shared folder and select sharing & security. On the main page use the permissions to allocate who can connect to your shared folders and what they can do read only etc.

That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

 
unshare printer - goto printers and faxes in the start menu right click on the printer and select properties goto sharing and check the do not share option.
