	Just ensure that the stacks you want to share are in read-only
folders.  With AppleShare, this simply means ensuring that the users who
will access the Home stack or whatever other stacks do not have the Make
Changes priv turned on.

	Of course this interferes with some of the normal functioning of
HyperCard, such as the fact that users cannot modify the Address stack or
add their own Quotes to the Quote stack or anything like that.  We
recommend that users who wish to have their own Address or Datebook or
Calender (etc.) stacks store them on their own local volumes or in other
folders on the server if that is appropriate.
