+Managing Server-to-Server Sharing Access
+========================================
+
+You can manage how server-to-server sharing functions for internal and external
+users and groups from the Admin page. The settings on the Admin page provide a
+level of security for whether or not local or remote ownCloud users or groups
+can access server-to-server shares.
+
+To manage server-to-server sharing access:
+
+1. Access the ownCloud Admin page.
+
+2. In the Application View, scroll to the Remote Shares section of the page.
+
+   .. figure:: ../images/remote_shares.png
+
+3. Enable or disable the remote shares options as desired:
+
+   * ``Allow other instances to mount public links shared from this server`` --
+     This option enables (checked) or disables (unchecked) the ability for
+     remote ownCloud users to access public links that you share from the
+     server.
+
+   * ``Allow users to mount public link shares`` -- This option enables
+     (checked) or disables (unchecked) users on the local server to add shares
+     (folders or files) to the current ownCloud instance.
+
+For information about how to use server-to-server sharing, "Using Server-to-Server Sharing"
+in the Users Manual.

+Using Server-to-Server Sharing
+==============================
+
+ownCloud supports server-to-server sharing.  By mounting a share from another
+ownCloud instance, this feature enables you to:
+
+* Seamlessly collaborate and share files from within two ownCloud instances.
+* Combine two private clouds into a single public cloud. 
+* Locally synchronize the folder through the client. 
+* Eliminate the need to create user accounts on multiple instances.
+
+.. note:: Server-to-server sharing requires that both servers are running
+   versions of ownCloud that support this feature.
+
+For information about managing server-to-server sharing functions for internal
+and external users and groups see `Managing Server-to-Server Sharing Access`_.
+
+Sharing Files and Folders Across Servers
+----------------------------------------
+
+Server-to-server sharing is enabled on new or upgraded ownCloud installations
+by default. However, you need to share folders in a particular way for
+server-to-server sharing to function.  When sharing files and folders across
+servers, two primary steps are required.  These steps include:
+
+1. The originator sharing a file or folder from their server using a link.
+
+2. The receiver(s) of the shared file or folder adding the file or folder to their ownCloud instance.
+
+Sharing From a Server
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To share a file or folder across servers as an originator:
+
+1. Access the Files app on your server.
+
+2. Select and share a file or folder by link.
+
+   .. figure:: ../images/share_link.png
+
+   **Sharing a link**
+
+3. (Optional) Specify an alphanumeric password that you want others to use in order to accessing this share.
+
+4. (Optional) Specify an expiration date for the share.
+
+    If set, the ability to access the link expires on the date specified.
+
+3. Send an email to the user or group to indicate the shared link.
+
+Adding a Shared File or Folder to Your ownCloud Instance
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To add a file or folder to your ownCloud:
+
+1. Access the shared link using a browser.
+
+   The links opens the shared folder or file.
+
+   .. figure:: ../images/share_link_adding.png
+
+2. Click "Add to your owncloud" and specify the URL to your ownCloud instance.
