ladysaint Posted 3 November, 2008 Share Posted 3 November, 2008 Is there anyway I can password protect photographs which are stored on a shared drive at work so that photographs can only be seen by those that have the password. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exit2 Posted 3 November, 2008 Share Posted 3 November, 2008 jan, all depends on if you have rights to create a folder etc and also if the rights are pushed down from your IT dept. Best thing to do is try adding a new folder and then rights click on the folder to see the security / permission tabs. If you can change them then it will work. Although we do not allow our users to do that as it can be an admin nightmare. Besat thing to do is ask your it dept to do for you if they will?

Pancake Posted 3 November, 2008 Share Posted 3 November, 2008 As Exit2 says... Haev you thought of hosting them on an online photostore instead? You can noramlly assign a password for guest viewing nd give this out to the other people who you want to view the images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgerx16 Posted 3 November, 2008 Share Posted 3 November, 2008 You could use something like WINZIP to create an encrypted archive and only give the p/w to those who you need to. They would be able to open files directly from within the ZIP to view them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mynameisthehulk Posted 4 November, 2008 Share Posted 4 November, 2008 Would be easy to put them in a Word document and encrypt that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
