How do I lock access to directories/drives in Win2000

[theGlove]

would like to password protect directories or drives so that only the admin can access these directories in win 2000. How can this be done? In unix, i can just do a chmod on the read/write/execute flags.
thanks

Select Properties on the folder, Choose tab Security. Then remove Everyone and add only the user(s) you want to give access and specify their right to the folder.

NB! To change the permissions of a folder you first have to remove "Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this object"

I think you have to be using NTFS for the above, but yeah that should be how you do it.
