Yes. Using Samba, you can set each machine to a specific workgroup and share files that way. Access control is then based on that machine's user list.

1) "It doesn't work..." is simply not useful information.
2) Don't cross post!
3) If you are asking for help, start by telling us your distro/os and version.
