Tutorial: File sharing in OS X

In order to share files on a network in the past "classic" Mac operating system, you had to access and set up items in several locations. First, you needed to enable file sharing in one location, then add users in another location, and finally navigate to individual folders in the finder to set up sharing for those locations. Because of the multiple steps for sharing items, people could lose track of the shared folders, and the permissions that each user had for the specific share point. As with many aspects of the system, Apple has gone through extensive efforts to refine this process in OS X, and make file sharing straightforward and simple. They have done a fairly good job at it, both in the default setup for file sharing and in allowing you to customize the file-sharing setup on your computer, by making sharing both configurable through one interface and also intuitive.
