Q: Sharing only ONE folder with the network...but mac os x allows windows to see all drives
I'm trying to share ONLY one folder on my i Mac (my imac os version 10.8.3) with the other pc in my organisation.
But when I enable file sharing, it automatically opens the entire computer to all the admins in the network.
I have found no way to restrict this and make only the shared folder accessible for admins yet....
Help?
iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2010), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3), iphone

Right click on the folder you want to share and select Get Info.
At the bottom is the sharing and permissions. You will likely
have to unlock (icon in lower right) and enter your admin
name and password.
You may also want to go to System Preferences and Sharing. Select
File Sharing (obviously check to enable) and then click the options
button on the right. Check the box for SMB sharing.
