Ok so it's simple. My father decide to find me some work and gave me this job of setting up permissions for the folders and files on theirs server in his small buisness. They have a windows server 2003. At first i thought everything would be easy. And so it seems but i just cant make it done. So the system is this. There are like 15 PCs in the office and everyone has a certain job. All the information they need is on the server, but not all information is important for them. Some of them need only to read certain files while other have to change them. After reading the whole internet through google about setting permissions on server 2003 i ended up with this:
right clicking on the desired folder > properties > security > advanced > add > and here is my problem. Here i want to add the PC, lets say John's PC, as the one i want to give permisions. But when i search for users the only one it finds are the servers local users and groups like administrator, guest, network service etc - all that is in computar managment > system tools > local users and groups. And i cant change the location where it should search - for instance the office network(Workgroup). If i can select each user in the office and give specific permissions for him to the desired folders it would be great.
I know i'm not familiar with software but i wish to learn so pls help me out here
