File and print sharing configuration

With your computers connected together on a network, you may open and save
files on another computer. You will be able to specify folders or drives to "share"
and even password protect them.
Passwords allows you to apply a level of security to your shared drives and folders.
Another computer (user) will be required to enter the password you designate
here before accessing the drive or folder. Two passwords are used to give two
levels of security (or access) to others on the network using the Depends on
Password setting. Leaving the Password boxes empty gives everyone on the
network access to the drive or folder.
You can access a shared drive or folder from most Windows software. To make this
process easier, Windows allows you to map these drives and folders to a drive
letter on another computer.
To map a drive or folder:
1 Click Tools on the Windows Explorer menu, then click Map Network
Drive. The Map Network Drive window opens.
2 Type a letter to assign an available drive letter in the Drive box.
3 When mapping a particular folder, either type the folder name in the
Folder box or use Browse to locate the folder.
4 Check Reconnect at logon to map this network drive each time you start
your computer.
