He has tried to look for the same finer settings in Win XP where he works but was unable to find them. His search on the net returned positive feedback but the exact place where these can be set still elude him.

One possibility is that if the volume in question is FAT32, advanced security is not available. He would need to convert it to NTFS via the CMD-line CONVERT utility:
convert c: /fs:ntfs
After doing that, he would need to re-set security on any shares he may have established previously while the volume was FAT32.
