Step 3: Specifying access privileges for the created shared folder
If you want to specify access privileges for the created folder to allow other users or groups to access the folder, configure the folder as follows:
Right-click the folder created in Step 2, and then click [Properties].
On the [Security] tab, click [Edit...].
Click [Add...].
In the [Select Users, Computers, Service Accounts, or Groups] window, click [Advanced...].
Specify one or more object types, select a location, and then click [Find Now].
From the list of results, select the groups and users you want to grant access to, and then click [OK].
In the [Select Users, Computers, Service Accounts, or Groups] window, click [OK].
In the [Groups or user names:] list, select a group or user, and then, in the [Allow] column of the permissions list, select either the [Full Control] or [Modify] check box.
Click [OK].
If you are creating a shared folder for the first time on this computer, you must enable the file sharing function. For details, see Windows Help.
To register a shared folder in the machine's address book, you need the computer's IP address or computer name, and the user name and password of a user who has access permissions for the shared folder.
For details about registering shared folders, see "Registering Folders", For First-time Users.
