Setting a Shared Folder and Access Permissions (Windows Server 2008)

Return to Overview

Once you create the account in your computer, create a shared folder. Add the created account to the shared folder as the user who is permitted to access that folder. Set access permissions for that user to that folder as well.

  1. Create a folder in any drive.

Creating the folder in the place where users can find it easily, such as the first level in C drive, is recommended.

Ex) C:\share

  • Use alphanumeric characters to name the folder.
  1. Right-click the created folder.
  1. Select [Share...] to open the [File Sharing] dialog box.

  1. Click [] to open the pull-down menu and select [Find...] from the pull-down menu in the [File Sharing] screen.

  1. Click [Advanced...] in the [Select Users or Groups] dialog box.

  1. Click [Find Now] to display the user list.
  1. Select the user you want to give permission to access the folder in the [Search result:] list and click [OK].

  1. Click [OK] in the [Select Users or Groups] dialog box.

  1. Select the added user. Select the [Contributor] or [Co-owner] check box. Click [Share].

  • If the [User Account Control] dialog box appears in Windows Server 2008,, click [Continue].
  • Access permissions in Windows Server 2008
  • Reader: A reader can only view shared files.
  • Contributor: A contributor can create, alter and delete shared files, but not alter access permissions.
  • Co-owner: A co-owner can perform all file operations including creating, altering, deleting shared files and altering access permissions.
  1. Click [Done] to close the [File Sharing] dialog box.

Sample destination setting:

  1. Set a destination address using the display.
  • Server side settings:
[Computer name]: swan
[Share Name]: share
  • The machine's destination settings:
<NAME>: The destination's name
The server protocol: <Windows (SMB)>
<HOST NAME>: \\swan (Double backslash "\\" can be omitted)
Computer name confirmed in step 3 in "Confirming Computer Name (Windows Server 2008)"
<FILE PATH>: \share
Folder name created in step 1
<LOGIN NAME>: User name entered in step 4 in "Creating a User Account for Accessing a Shared Folder (Windows Server 2008)."
<PASSWORD>: Password entered in step 6 in "Creating a User Account for Accessing a Shared Folder (Windows Server 2008)."
  • If you use <Windows (SMB): Browse> to specify each item, Use that after the expiration of the time specified in "Setting Startup Time." (the default setting startup time is <60 seconds>)
  • A maximum of 120 alphanumeric characters can be entered for both <HOST NAME> and <FILE PATH> on the display.
  • If you switch the language of the display, <HOST NAME> and <FILE PATH> may not be displayed correctly.
  • If the language of the display differs from the computer on your network, <HOST NAME> and <FILE PATH> may not be displayed correctly, or you may not be able to browse the directories.
  • For instructions on how to specify destination address settings, see "Registering Destinations in the Address Book (imageRUNNER 1025iF Only)."
