Default granting access permissions

I am trying to grant access permissions to another user on the network. The
help file leads me to "grant incoming connection access rights toyour
computer" which I click on and get : Open Network Connections - fine, then
click Incoming Connections, _ cannot find this anywhere on that screen.

Anybody any ideas?

is this a peer-to-peer network or a domain?

have you ensured that the other user has an account set up on your
machine with exactly the same username, exactly the same password and
exactly the same access rights as the user account on their machine?
