Workgroup Security

by hratchn . Updated 25 years, 4 months ago

Supposing We have 8 Computers Connected to a hub in peer to peer connection, and the Workgroup is X.later We added an extrnal link to the hub from another place, from a windows 2000 server , for the purpose of internet sharing.the same server has other clients(xyz) (other than our 8 computers).Now “xyz” can view our workgroup and access our hard drives if we share them.The question is if is there any way to prevent the external computers from seeing our workgroup X? or to not access our drives even if we share them without password protecting them?? What I need is to share all the drives just to our 8 computers. The computers OS is Windows 95.please keep in mind that we don’t have any access to the Server.
