Creating a new share
To create a simple share,do the following.
1. Create a directory that will be used for the share. You can do this by executing the
command from a terminal:
mkdir /home/public
In our example we created a “public” directory in the “home” directory.
2. Adjust the UNIX permissions for the directory, so that only intended users have access.
3. Type in the share name in the field next to the Create Share button, similar to Figure 4-8.
