- A Finder window should open up displaying the home directories of all of the accounts on igpphome. If not you will see an icon on your desktop titled "Users."
- Find the folder of the User who you wish to give the file to. Open it and open their Public directory.
- Drag and drop any file you wish to leave the user in the "Drop Box" folder.
- If someone leaves you a file in your "Drop Box" folder, you can retrieve it by following steps 1-5 making sure to log in to igpphome with your network username and password. For step 6 go to your own folder and open up the Public directory. You can now open up Drop Box because it is your own folder and you now have the correct permissions. Anything anyone else left you in that folder can now be accessed in this way.
