Unless you want to buy a Windows server and switch to domain services, I
recommend you disable simple file sharing in the Folder Options control
panel. (The setting is all the way at the bottom of the controls in the
View tab.)
Then create accounts on your system that match the userIDs and passwords
that others who will access your system use to logon to their systems.
Set file/folder permissions to grant these users the proper access, or
create a new user group, set permissions on the group, and make these
accounts members of that new group.
