Users and groups are set at the folder level via the Get Info command. Right click to get a menu or click on a folder once and go to File/Get Info.

Sharing is set in System Prefs/Sharing. You also have to check/uncheck some Firewall settings, depending on your setup.

Fax sharing is controlled by Printer Sharing in sharing in sys. prefs.
Sharing receive fases is controlld by system Prefs/Print & Fax/Faxing/Save to or you can use e-mail or both.

If you go to Help and search Sharing or Users & Groups you'll get pretty straightforward answers.
