Sharing Security Issue

Hello,

I have a wireless network between two computers. Simple File Sharing is
turned off on both machines.

The client computer named "LIL" has 3 users named James, Karriem and Lilian.

What I want to do is only allow Lilian access to the host from the client
machine.

Here's what I've done:

1. Selected Sharing and Security for drive C:
2. Enabled "Share this folder"
3. Clicked "Permissions"
4. Under "Share Permissions" Group or user names: I clicked the "Add" button
5. Under "Select Users or Groups" I click "Advanced" button
6. I clicked "Find Now" button

At this point I see a long list like:

Name [RDN] In Folder
------------------------------------------------
Administrators SEDSSERVER
Anonymous Logon
ASPNET SEDSSERVER
Authenticated Users
Backup Operators SEDSSERVER
NETWORK
Sedgrick SEDSSERVER

The client computer LIL does not appear in the list. I can share files
between computers only if I leave sharing in the default "Everyone" state.
That means anyone logging into the client will be able to access the host
machine.

How can I control who gets to log onto the host from the client?

I found that the answer to my question lies in my file system which needs to
be NTFS.
