networking with 2 users

carldac · 10-28-2009, 11:03 AM

Hello. Could someone please let me know if the following is possible:

I have a new personal laptop and want to use it at work but don't want my personal stuff to be synced, viewed or shared onto the server. However, I also require access to LAN; Microsoft exchange, Internet, directories etc.

I wondered if it was possible to set up two users accounts; one for business and one for personal and have the business user account talk to the server etc for all usual business needs, then have the personal user account just have access to the Internet??

Thanks in advance.

You can do that. It is all within the settings for your network file and printer sharing. Just change the settings yo your specific needs.
