bigb89 Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Hi, I'm trying to backup my C drive over the network to a different computer that's on the LAN. In order to that I believe that I have to assign my C drive a user name and password. Currently the computer doesn't have any password to login or do certain things. So my questions is: in order for me to assign the C drive share a password, do I need to create an admin account on the computer that has a user name and password or can I just assign the C drive a user name and password without having to create a password protected account on the computer?
