Title: Providing Access to Your Home Directory

Only administrators can actually share a directory by creating a sharename
in a 3+Open 1.1 system.  However, on a server with USER security, all users
have the ability to provide access to directories in their home directory.
The mechanism is a bit different from 3+ in that they do not SHARE the
directory.  Instead, they modify the access rights to the directory of
interest using the NET ACCESS command.  The user that they give access to
then links to the USERDIRS sharename (by default, all users have RX access)
and changes directory to the directory he has been given access to.  They are
able to access only this directory, and not any intervening directories
(unless, of course, they have been granted access to the other directories).

In the following example OWNER has a home directory named MYDIR:

OWNER:

1.  net use h: \\server\userdirs
2.  h:
3.  net access h:\mydir\pubdir /grant Nicodemus:rw


OTHER USER (Nicodemus):

1.  net use h: \\server\userdirs
2.  h:
3.  cd mydir\pubdir

The user Nicodemus will be able to read and write to the owner's
subdirectory, PUBDIR, but not to MYDIR.
