with Windows Home Server

Create Shared Folders

Windows Home Server comes with several predefined

shared folders. However, you do not have to use just

those folders. If you want, you can create your own

shared folders on the server. This enables you to

create different folders for different types of files, such

as letters and recorded TV shows.

Set Up Family Accounts

The Windows Home Server Console has a User

Accounts tab that allows you to create user

accounts. This enables you to create a separate

account for each family member that you want to

give access to the server’s shared files. You can

create up to ten accounts in Windows Home Server.
