Step 1: Plan a Sharing Policy

Before you can start sharing, first you must decide what you want to share and who gets to share it. Mapping out a folder sharing policy is a crucial element to creating a file server.

Even in small organizations, you must often restrict subgroups from accessing certain information. Whether it’s separating teacher data from students, or keeping children away from parents’ data, you often find yourself creating more than one group for sharing folders.
