Restricting Shared Folder Access Windows 7?

Mar 3, 2011

We have recently ordered a laptop along with a docking station with the intention of connecting it with the desktop PC in the office. We want the documents folders of both computers to be synchronized and to that end we want to share the folders between each computer. However, to do so we will have to connect the laptop to the larger network in our office. Given the sensitive nature of the documents we only want the desktop PC and the laptop to be able to access these files and synchronize them.

Is there anyway in Windows 7 to specify exactly which computers are allowed access to shared folders on a computer? What's the best way to achieve the file synchronization between the two?

Unable To Access NTFS Shared Folder?

I have shared a folder on my server with sharing & NTFS permissions. I am the administrator and have more than the required permissions.

Yet when i try and access the folder from My Computer, it tells me that it is not accessible and that access is denied.Ive done the same for every other user who should have access, with no problems.

Ive also looked at parent permissions and inheriting and have found no reason for this.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 No Write Access To Mijn Muziek Shared Folder

Dec 28, 2011

I have created a share (entire partition) on my external hard drive, which is connected to my E4200 router. The connection to the share is \192.168.1.1ExHDOn the hard drive I've got a folder called "Mijn muziek" (Dutch for My music). So when i go to \192.168.1.1ExHDMijn muziek, the content of the folder is shown. The weird thing is, I can rename the folder, but i cannot add anything to the folder or remove anything from it. I can add files to other folders on the hard driveAnother thing I don't understand is that his folder shows up as "Music" when I create the share.Music is not a folder on the hard drive, but when I go to \192.168.1.1ExHDMusic, i'm in the "Mijn muziek" folder.I have the exact same problems with the folders "Mijn documenten" (shown as Documents) and "Mijn afbeeldingen" (shown as Pictures). Why i don't have write access on the Mijn muziek folder? And how I can manage to get write access on it?

Configure Kaspersky Pure To Let Shared Folder To Be Mapped Via VPN

Jul 24, 2012

I have got a laptop and Desktop both of them have windows 7 ultimate OS and both of them have Kaspersky Pure V9.1 0.124 ( b ).

At home from the laptop I can access a shared folder on the desktop with no problem

I tried to enable the access to the shared folder over the internet while the laptop away from home, by implementing a VPN. I have successfully managed to configure a VPN IPSec between home router DrayTek 2820Vn that acting as VPN server, and the laptop that has TheGreenBow VPN client.

Through VPN tunnel laptop can ping the ip address for the router and the ip address for home printer and the ip address for home desktop , all of those are located at the other end of the VPN tunnel.

And I can access the web interface for the router as well by typing its private ip address. On the laptop and through the VPN tunnel I tried to map the shard folder on the desktop (\desktopipaddressSharedFolderName) , but it didn't work!!!.

when I existed Kaspersky on the desktop , I was able ping the desktop and to map the shared folder which is hosted on the desktop

How can I configure Kaspersky to let the the shared folder to be mapped via VPN ?

Netgear DGND3700 USB Storage - Unable To Edit Settings For Shared Folder?

Dec 13, 2011

Have just had a stab at using my Netgear DGND3700's USB drive sharing - I had a spare external HDD + I want to be able to access files on it both over the 'net and from local network. Both work fine, very easy to set up, however I am unable to edit settings for the shared folder, which means I am unable to password protect it.

I don't need a password for local sharing but obviously it isn't ideal to have files freely available on the Internet, have looked into troubleshooting but can't find any similar stories with Netgears.I click "edit" or "create network folder" and it loads for a second or two but just stays on the same page. There is only one option to select but I have tried clicking the radio button first anyway, then clicking edit, same result.

Saving Passwords For Access To Shared Files On Windows Server 2K3?

Aug 20, 2011

We've recently installed Windows Server 2003 at our small office for data storage, and have set up shared folders in the Win Server 2K3 for access from about a dozen Win XP Pro machines.Upon the first access of these shared folders from a Win XP Pro machine, we're required to enter a User Name & Password for the Win Server 2K3 machine:Is there a work-around for this? Perhaps some method in WinXP Pro to save the username/password? As it stands now, any time one of the WinXP Pro machines gets rebooted, or if the server gets rebooted, users of the Win XP Pro machines have to re-enter the username/password, and I'd like to find if there's away around having to re-enter that info.

Servers :: Windows Server 2008 / Access Restrictions To Shared Folders

Oct 25, 2011

we have two servers in our network, one functions as a file server (windows server 2008) and the other as a domain controller with active directory and some database applications running on it (windows SBS 2003). the file server has folders for the different units in our company, these are shared folders. these folders can be accessed by anyone with a domain login by running \servername from their computers, without any further authentication required.

i have tried to set up sharing restrictions with no success, for example the Accounts folder, i right click on it and select properties, and the sharing or security. under both tabs i added three names of those that i want to have access to the folder. these names appear in the sharing list together with:administrator(servernameadministrator) administrators (servernameadministrators) administrator systemeveryone has not been added as is the case with all other folders. what is this system on the list? how i can restrict access, perhaps there is a setting that i have missed or settings in the network that prevent these restrictions?

Restricting Internet Access To Particular Users On XP?

May 28, 2011

got myself the Netgear internal PCI wifi adapter today & it works just fine on my Windows XP SP3 desktop.

The only problem I have is the question of restricting complete internet access to kids @ home. If it was an external USB adapter, I could have just taken it away but the concern is the device being an internal & always available one.

The user configuration on the PC is such that there is 1 main administrator (The actual windows "administrator" account) that no one uses. Apart from that,

- 1 user with admin privileges (me)

- 1 limited account for the kid

- 1 admin privilege account for the kid again (for purposes like installation of games which require an admin account as mandatory)

I would like for the wifi PCI card to work only when I login to my user account. There must be someway by which I could disable the device or make the internet inaccessible in the other accounts,, (but pls bear that 1 of the account that the kid uses also has admin privilege)

I tried disabling the device from control panel but in vain.. (tried something like the sys admins do in corporates ..) disabling the usb ports on the PC's in my office..!

Cisco AAA/Identity/Nac :: 6500 / Restricting Access To SSIDs?

Oct 29, 2012

I have Configured a WLAN with WiSM2 Controller installed on a 6500 series, Aironet 3600series APs and  ACS 5.3 for userauthentication. The ACS is connected to Active directory so users are authenticating using the AD (802.1x is used and not a pre-shared key) on SSID A. I have created a separate SSID B for guest users. I have put restrictions on this SSID. Guest users are also created on the same AD where internal users are created. How can I force Guest users to connect to SSID B and not be able to connect to SSID A? Currently they can connect to both.

Cisco Security :: 1023 / Securing And Restricting Access To A FTP?

Nov 6, 2012

I have an ASA firewall and I have never configured an FTP server for a large scale network (well large in my opinion). I want to ensure we have the highest level of security available for the FTP and to limit only the specific users designated by an ACL. Would SFTP be the best available option for security measures? Should I only use Passive FTP and what range of ports above 1023 should I open for only 1 or 2 FTP clients at a time? Also if I use Passive mode do I need to use protocol inspection for FTP?Also, Currently I'm unsure of what files need to be accessed on our network but should the SFTP Server always only be installed within the DMZ?

Cisco WAN :: 2901 Terminal Server And Restricting Access

Apr 19, 2011

I have a Cisco 2901 Terminal server with AAA authentication via ACS server.  I create twoaccounts on the acs server, cciesec2011 and vendor.  Both accounts can log into the Cisco 2901 Terminal Server without any issues.  By the way, I am NOT using AAA authorization on the  Cisco Terminal Server.  Once cciesec2011 or vendor accounts are authenticated, theseaccounts can access all the async line on the Cisco Terminal Server.
 
Now I have a new requirements.  I would like to allow cciesec2011, once this account is successfully authenticated, this account has access to ALL async line on the Terminal Server.  The "vendor" account, I want to restrict this account access only to async line 35 (there are 32 async lines available on the Cisco Terminal Server) and nothing else.
 
How can I accomplish without using AAA authorization on the Cisco Terminal Server?Is it possible to use "privlege level" to accomplish this?  if so, how?
