How do we set up file folder & printer sharing Permissions for users & groups
How do we set up file folder & printer sharing Permissions for users & groups. Are there any microsoft videos, links to examples or best practices for this process. I have already fully installed the server with all updates. We also installed Exchange on this server as we are not going to have more than 10 users on the box. Please advise what is the best follow up for the server.

That's a pretty broad question that it could take pages to explain. I would recommend that you pick up a good book on the subject such as Microsoft Windows Server Unleashed. If you can be more specific about exactly what you want to know, maybe I or someone else could explain...

Are there any examples or videos of how to create a user, or group
assign permissions to see a file or folder
verify the user cannot access a file or folder?
That is all I need for now.

Creating Groups in Active Directory is easy - just open the AD Users and Computers console, locate an OU in the system and then right-click, New, User for a user account, group for a group account. Choose 'Security' if you choose a Group object. See the links above for details on setting NTFS security.
Easiest way to verify a user cannot access a file / folder is to press the 'Advanced' button the security tab, then go to Effective Permissions and enter the username. Unchecked boxes means the user does not have that permission inherited.
