4) When the [Sharing] tab in the dialog box of [(Drive Name) Properties] appears, click the option button of [Share this folder] and then click the [New Share] button.
5) When the dialog box of [New Share] appears, type any name you like in the text box of [Share Name], select a user limit in the [User Limit] box and click the [Permissions] button. For the user limit, refer to the followings.
