    I'd like to setup a fodler share that I can provide to my friends to upload/download files to my WHS.  So far it seems like an "all or nothing".  In order to have access to the folder they get remote access to my computers.  Is there a way to do a folder only share without completely disabling the Remote Access for PCs?

    Yes. Specifics are in the console help file, under User Accounts.
    I'm not on the WHS team, I just post a lot. :)

    Create a user account and enable Remote Access for that account. In User Accounts > {account name} > Properties, you can enable this. Choose Allow access to shared folders only in the dropdown list.

    On the Shared Folder Access tab, you can disallow access to all shared folders except the one you want them to use.
