You say that one is the "server". Is it running a server OS (like windows server 2000, 2003, Linux , ... etc) The only way to have a true Client / Server relationship is to have an actual "server" setup including Active Directory (if windows based) and Samba (if Linux / Unix based). It is allot to go into, if you go to Microsoft's Technet site, you can find articles on how to install a Windows based server. You can go a Google search to find the same info for both Windows and Unix / Linux.
You can also contact me via my Yahoo ID if you require help.
Hope this helped....

Just set up permissions on the shared folder on the server...that way they will either have to be logged in as a user in the list, or it will prompt them for a username/password to get in. Right click on the folder and go to Properties...Click on the Security tab and set permissions there.
