What follows are some basic instructions for creating a network share under Windows

•
Create a new user account:
Note
We recommend that you create a special user account to be used by the CyberGuard
SG appliance for reading and writing to the network share. If you have an existing
account or wish to may the network share readable and writeable by everyone, you
may skip the next step.
To create an account, click Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Create a
new account. Type a name for the new account, e.g. sguser, and click Next.
Typically it is sufficient to grant this account Limited privileges. Click Create
Account to create it. Select the account you have just create under Pick an account
to change. Select Create a password. Enter and confirm a password for this
account, as well as a password hint if desired.
