I need to know a way to password protect folders/files on my file server.I need people who are connected to the network to be able to access those files/folders with a password.I have used Folder Guard installed on each desktop and that worked great, but now I have a wireless access point. It is used primarily for internet access, but some need to access the network files. anyone who connects to my wireless network has access to our files. please help.
