    I have shared folder on my server, running on Win XP with SP2. This shared directory is used by multiple persons. I want to know, the ip addresses which accessed this folder.
    Is that possible by any means ? Please help me.

    Since Windows XP is not a server OS, I doubt you'll be able to find that information without the use of a 3rd party app. I have no idea if there is a 3rd party tool that would give you this info.

    The closest you can get with native XP tools is to enable the Audit account logon events Local Security Policy, but that will only give you the Computer Name logging in on the system.
