Ready, Set, Control. Another
way to keep prying eyes away from your files is to use access control. In Win98,
you have a choice of two types of access control: share level and user level .
Share-level access control lets you restrict who can use resources, such as
folders, drives, and printers, by assigning a password to each one. Anyone who
knows the password for a resource can use it, making it easy to share resources
with a number of people without a lot of fuss. However, this benefit is also the
feature’s weakness. What happens if a password falls into the wrong hands or
is more widely distributed than you intended?
In contrast, you set user-level access control by compiling a list of people or
workgroups who can use the file or folder. Because the users are already on a
master list (which is usually maintained by a network administrator), they
don’t need a specific password to use the resource because their presence on
the list has already given them permission.
