How can you give full access to some of your files while giving read-only access to other files shared on a network?

A shared directory can operate similarly to a directory on a local system. Therefore, you control access to individual files via permissions. If some files should only have read permission to others than you manipulate the group and world permissions so that they cannot modify or delete the file. Same thing goes for files you want to be able to have as full access on your shared network directory; modify the permissions.
