Share Permission
share permission
User accounts and groups are useful for determining who can access various resources on a network. There may be a large number of files and folders that certain individuals should be able to modify and which others should be able to read but not be allowed to change. Assigning permissions to individual users allows a network administrator to control who can read or modify certain files and folders. They can also be used to control access to other network resources, such as printers. Assigning individual permissions to large numbers of people where large numbers of network resources exist can be time consuming. This is where groups are useful. Rather than setting each individual's permissions for each network resource, the group is set permissions, then users are assigned as members of groups. In this way the group permissions can be modified as network resources change and users can be moved from one group to another (or be made members of multiple groups) which will save time and reduce mistakes.
Write, Access control lists are used to specify the permissions that users will have to resources on the network. The Write permission allows a user to modify folders and files that already exist in the environment as well as create new files and folders as required.
You have to change permissions on folders and files for the appropriate sharing of other people on the network. See the related link below for specific instructions.
Shared folder permissions are used to restrict access to a folder or file that is shared over the network. Folder sharing is normally used to grant remote users access to file and folders over the network. Web sharing is used to grant remote users access to files from the Web if Internet Information Services (IIS) is installed.When folders are shared, it is important to keep in mind that you can share folders only, and not files. For users that are locally logged on to a computer, shared folder permissions are irrelevant. Shared folders that are moved are no longer shared. When shared folders are copied, the copy is not shared. The original shared folder however remains shared.A few disadvantages associated with share permissions are listed below:Shared folder permissions do not have as many permission options as NTFS permissions. The only shared folder permissions that can be assigned to users/groups are Read, Change, or Full Control.Share permissions are not inheritable.You cannot back up or audit shared folder permissions.If you move or even rename a shared folder, the shared folder permissions for that particular folder no longer exist.

1. User1 should have Full Control permission on SalesData over the network (as well as locally). Their effective NTFS permissions are Full Control because this is the cumulative effect of Modify and Full Control permissions. Plus, they are given Full Control share permission, meaning the most restrictive combination of share and NTFS is still Full Control.

Are there any differences in their types of permissions? If so, describe themNote: I am looking to see that you understand the differences in and between the actual permission levels, e.g. Everyone, System, Users, Administrators, etc.Share permissions are the permissions you set for a folder when you share that folder. The share permissions determine the type of access others have to the shared folder across the network. There are three types of share permissions: Full Control, Change, and Read.NTFS permissions determine the action users can take for a folder or file both across the network and locally. Unlike share permissions, NTFS permissions offer several other permissions besides Full Control, Change, and Read that can be set for groups or individually. The most restrictive permission applies when share and NTFS permissions conflict.

It is jut a bad idea all round really. If an unauthorised user connects to your network, they may visit illegal websites or commit illegal activity which will be traced back to you. You may also have some shared folders that you didn't know you had. These can generally be accessed by anyone on the network. If permissions on these folders are set to read/write then the unauthorised user may be able to delete any shared files.
