users who browse the computer.

Lesson Summary
■ Simple File Sharing is a simplified sharing model that allows users to share or not
share a folder instead of applying NTFS and shared folder permissions. Simple File
Sharing is enabled by default on computers running Windows XP Professional that
are members of a workgroup. Simple File Sharing is not available on computers
that are members of a domain.
■ The three shared folder permissions are Read, Change, and Full Control.
■ To share a folder, you must be a member of the Administrators or Power Users
groups, or have the Create Permanent Shared Objects user right assigned to your
account.
■ The characteristics of shared folder permissions include:
❑ Shared folder permissions apply to folders, not individual files.
❑ Shared folder permissions apply only to users who connect to the folder over
the network.
❑ Using shared folder permissions is the only way to secure file resources on
FAT volumes.
❑ The default shared folder permission is Read, and it is assigned to the Everyone
group when you share the folder.
■ When you share a folder, you can give it a share name, provide comments to
describe the folder and its content, control the number of users who have access
to the folder, assign permissions, and share the same folder multiple times.
