    I have just set up my new Airport Extreme and have it working great for the internet access. i want to back up 2 computers on this using Time Machine, but do not want the 2 computer users to have access to each others data.

    Is there an easy way to do this so far i have had no luck setting up separate accounts on the disk on the Air port.

    Not sure if this would work, but maybe you could set up two partitions on the drive and encrypt them individually. Give one decryption key to one user and the second to the other.
