I'm using Windows Server 2008 at home as a fun little side project. It's my first time using it, and I'm trying to basically set up a way for different users to login and access their files without using Active Directories. What I want is to be able to click the server in the network connections, have it prompt for a username and password, then to show that User's directories: (Documents, etc). They should be able to manipulate them, erase them, etc. I do not want to dump all files into a public shared folder. Any way to set this up? At the moment when I click it, it goes directly to display a printer that I installed, and that's it.

Hi,You may consider sharing the Document folder for all users.For more information, you can refer to the "Sharing a Folder or Printer in Windows Vista" in the following article:File and Printer Sharing in Windows Vista http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspxIt can apply to Windows Server 2008.Thanks.This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
