Re: sharing files over network with XP Home and PHP?

When having firewalls and stuff that shouldn't really be a problem.. Also, notice that I would only recommend it for home users.. The reason I want it as admin is to give it full access to everything so.. And why I want that? So that I can do just about anything you could possibly think of.. Using FFI if necessary.. Besides.. Is it really _that_ big differense? I know some differences, but how much of it would matter in this case? Access to everyones documents and what else (in home edition that is)? XP anyway have a feature that I have a feeling will give access to any users anyway.. -- // DvDmanDT MSN: dvdmandt¤hotmail.com Mail: dvdmandt¤telia.com "Mikey" <frak@totalise.co.uk> skrev i meddelandet news:E1Csnqg-000806-Bn@smtp1.global.net.uk... > > Yoiks!!! > > > I accutually got it working..
