Folder and Printer Sharing

                      

The Atmosphere of My 2003 Computer Class at 4th Floor of Building1.
They were energetic and very nice schoolkids I have ever experienced.

All of us use Windows7 as the operating software, and our computers are connected together within the workgroup of the LAN (local area network). So we should gain the benefit of its sharing capability. Here we go!

1. FOLDER SHARING
       Be sure we have to specify what folder that we want to share?  

"BOOKS" is the folder of us to be shared.

Make a right clicking with the folder, the dialogue box appears. Select the "Sharing" tab and the "Advanced Sharing" button

Now the folder has never been shared yet (Not Shared)

Properties window of the folder appears and we should select to share it with others. Now we can see the maximum number of users to simultaneously enter to the folder is 20. Then we can click on the "Permission" button.

Tick the check-box, and we can change the share name or ignore it.

After clicking on the permission button, the Permissions window shows up, you can add any user e.g. "student" and you can change the permission type of the user.

We can add user/ specify his permission level.

Finally click on the "Apply" button, the folder now has been shared. 

Well, our folder has been shared.

Sample Special
This is from my computer (Its hostname is "ALPHA00".), when I click on the "Network" (at the left pane of Windows7 "Computer explorer" )  some computer hostnames appears.  Yes, I want to randomly select any hostname. If the target of mine is "KACHATUCH", yes I would make a double-click on it.

My Target Hostname is "KACHATUCH"

The shared folders of the hostname will be appeared. Then we can do a random selection and we can find any other subfolders that we can select to use.
 

The Shared Folders of "Kachatuch" appears, any folder could be selected.
  If any shared folder had been selected its subfolders would be revealed. 

 2. PRINTER SHARING
         Click the "Start button" of Windows7 desktop, the pop-up menu appears, then select "Devices and Printers", the target printer of us will be appeared.

Select the printer

Make a right click on the printer icon, the select menu will show up, then select "Printers properties" option.  Then we can operate sharing easily.

Select : Printer Properties

Click on the "Sharing tab", and we can rename the sharing printer.
