Business Network Security

[HDEStephen]

We have a network here with about 25-30 people connecting through.
We do not have an official "Server" but all the computers are connected to a PC which holds the network documents
Our issue is that we need to secure certain files and folders so that certain users can or cannot access them

What is a secure way of doing this while still being cost conscious?

Thanks alot for your help

Anyone have any insight?

The best way to do it is to set file permissions so that only the users you choose can access them. You can do that a couple of ways. Since I am lazy I use windows explorer and set permissions that way.You can also create user roles with appropriate permissions.

Does this require specific OS's? Our main server is using Win7 64bit
