File sharing means sharing data between two systems generally. For example if you share your resume to a recruiter via Gmail then it also comes under file sharing.
Sharing on a network avoid problems associated with data duplication Since users are contributing to one, shared file, file sharing avoid the problem of multiple users updating a file separately, possibly duplicating work and wasting time. Since not everyone requires their own copy of each file, the files will not fall out of synchronisation.
NFS is the Network File System, and allows directories from systems to be used in other systems in a sharing arrangement.
File sharing is the practice of sharing or offering access to digital information or resources, including documents, multimedia (audio/video), graphics, computer programs, images and e-books. It is the private or public distribution of data or resources in a network with different levels of sharing privileges.File sharing can be done using several methods. The most common techniques for file storage, distribution and transmission include the following:Removable storage devicesCentralized file hosting server installations on networksWorld Wide Web-oriented hyperlinked documentsDistributed peer-to-peer networks
•Data redundancyDifferent systems/programs have separate copies of the same data •Program-data dependence All programs maintain metadata for each file they use •Lack of flexibility Programmers must design their own file formats •Poor security, lack of data-sharing and availability No centralized control of data •Excessive Program Maintenance 80% of of information systems budget
Organizations can benefit from disabling simple file sharing when the system has become compromised. By disabling file sharing you limit access to the system.
sharing of files to other devices
Direct connection in file sharing would refer to what is more commonly knows as 'peer to peer' file sharing. This is when one individual uses a file sharing client that allows them to download directly from other (multiple) individuals and vice versa.

I am not aware of any sharing access for individual Excel files (if someone reading this knows how to do this with Windows, please improve the answer). File sharing permissions are for giving access to folders, not individual files. If you are not able to change the sharing permissions on the folder in which you have the Excel file stored, move the file to a folder or drive without sharing permissions. See related questions and links for information about file and folder sharing.
The most common between Unix systems would be NFS Network File System.
