> # Managing Systems and Shares with NetFile

> The following options, available from the File menu in NetFile, enable you to manage the systems, and shares on those systems that you access through NetFile.

> New Folder – Create a new folder or directory on the system you are logged into.

> Add System – Add a system to the Network Neighborhood pane.

> Remove System – Remove a system from the Network Neighborhood pane.

> Add Share – Add a shared resource or mount point.

> Remove Share – Remove a shared resource or mount point.

> Note | If you attempt to add a System or Share which is already in the Network Neighborhood pane, you will receive a warning. The System or Share will not be added twice. You can use the Add Share option to connect to a hidden share on a Microsoft Windows computer.

> Note | Choose Exit Session from the File menu to save your system list for use in your next session.

> To access a system, you need to have a password and permission provided by your administrator for that system. You also need to have the permissions to perform any operations such as adding a share, opening files or deleting files on the required share or folder.

> Note | NetFile lists only systems you have access to and that you, or your system administrator, have added. If the system you want to access does not appear in the Network Neighborhood pane, you need to add the system to your list.

> Files and directories for the system you select appear in the File Display pane. If you are accessing a shared resource, the information you need to provide depends on the type of resource you are accessing.

> Note | Choose Host Info from the Edit menu to manually specify the system type or edit other system information.
