Permission can be tricky.
1st. MS networks use the name of the user (XP Display Name) as the login name & password.
2nd. I have found it easier to create share folders using windows explorer, then login as admin and set the permisions to the folder.

If you have mapped the drive to an old user you must delete it and create a new. Their is also an option on networks shares to "Login AS".

Note: eveyone must have read access to the shares root. Then restrict user access to the folders that are private. If you have 2 shares this is easy.

The help system on the snap is pretty good in explaining user access rights and how the tree structure works.
