Sharing a Folder
To specify a particular folder you want to share, follow these steps. These steps can be repeated for multiple
folders if, for example, a certain folder must be shared with only one group of people and another folder with
another group of people, using different passwords.
Only folders may be shared, not individual files, i.e. if you wish to share a
file named blue.doc, then you must put blue.doc inside a folder and then
share that folder by following the directions below.
1. Locate the folder to be shared.
2. Right-click on the folder icon and choose Sharing from the menu that appears.
3. In the Sharing tab, select Shared As.
4. Folders have 3 possible levels of access to choose from.
a. Read-Only - allows others to read, but not make changes to the folder. If you select this option, choose
a password for the folder and type it into the Read-only Password: field.
b. Full - gives others full access to the folder--i.e., they can both read and make changes to it. If you
select this option, choose a password for the folder and type it into the Full Access Password field.
