Windows XP and file permissions

[BarryS]

With Windows 2000, if I wanted to set permissions for a particular directory to certain individuals on my domain I would simply right-click on the directory folder and go to Properties and then click on the Security tab and modify the user list. In Windows XP I don't seem to have this ability. Can someone guide me through how this is done in XP?

What I am trying to do exactly is make a particular user's My Documents folder available to the Domain Administrator so I can backup the folder as part of the nightly network backup job. I don't want anyone else to have access to the user's folder except the Domain Admin. The options I have with XP seem to be either don't share it or share it with everybody.

Thanks,

Barry

XP Home doesn't have this feature. XP Pro must be formatted on the NTFS file system and "Simple File Sharing" must be disabled.
