Am I correct in thinking that, in OS X, any user wishing to connect over the network to any shared volumes I might have needs to have a user account on my machine?
This means that I need to have a user account on my machine for everyone else on my network who I want to share files with, meaning they show up on the log in screen of my machine and have folders/files related to them on my hard drive. Since none of the other people on my network actually need to use my machine, just to connect to my shared files, is there a way they can connect to these without having to have a full user account on my machine?
Thanks in advance.
