Hope someone can help me with this question: I want to allow a computer (no a user) to have access to a folder on my server. The server and computer are both part of the same domain. Basically I want anyone that is logged into this computer to see the folder but not when they are logged in from thier desktop. I have the computer listed with full rights to the folder (through permissions and security) but it just doesn't work. Has anyone done this before?

The security to the folder runs under the security context of the logged on user, not the computer. You'll need to set it up for a user account. That is why it isn't working.
