Write-protecting a usb stick
Hi,
I'm interested in write-protecting a usb stick. I would like full access when it's on my machine and I'm logged in, but in other machines I would like a log in dialog to qualify the user trying to write to the stick. If he is able to sign in, he then would be able to write.
My idea was to convert the stick to NTFS, and thus gain the ability to set permissions, and to set them to only myself and the super admin. I think that will work regarding keeping the stick open on my machine and closed on anyone else's, but on another machine would a log-in screen arise, or would the stick strictly be unwritable?
Or is my scheme flawed in some other way?
Thanks,
p.
