highlight the drive or folder you wish to share. Get info. Pull down tab and chose Sharing". I like to specify a group instead of one or two users. Do likewise if more than that are logging on as authorized guests

I belive in OS 8.1 the "sharing" command is under the File menu in the finder. Be sure to select what you want to set permissions for first.
