Windows XP and 2000 don't have the built-in capability to share
webcams or scanners. You'd have to get software from another source
to do that.

Any suggestions on a good program to use for this? I
could use Netmeeting and remote desktop, but I am looking
for a better way, more like folder sharing


Thanks
