The [Shared folder name] Properties window is divided into two sections. Local sharing and
security only allows for the sharing of files among several users on the same PC. The files are then placed
in a Shared Documents folder. Network sharing and security, however, allows for the sharing of files
among more than one computer.
You can only share the contents of a folder, and not an individual file. We therefore recommend that
you create a folder specifically for this purpose where you will put files to be shared.
4.3.3. Windows XP: Accessing shared folders
To easily access folders set up for sharing by several computers, it is preferable that the computers belong to
the same workgroup. In Windows XP, the workgroup name has been defined using the Network Setup
Wizard.
4.3.4. Windows XP: Sharing a printer
It is possible to put a printer on the network and share it with all computers in the house equipped with a WiFi
adapter.
To access a printer on the network, the printer must be set up for sharing on the computer where it is
connected and installed.
