How do i give access to someone outside my network to a sharepoint folder, without giving them access to anything else on the site? I would like them to have access to upload and manage files to that folder.
thanks in advance for any advice.

Which kind of authantication do you have in SharePoint (Windows integrated, Forms-based, Claims Based with external claims provider)? If it is based on Active Directory, does the external co-worker have an account in AD? Does he have access to the SharePoint server at the network level (I mean ports opened, authentication on firewall etc.)? – pholpar Mar 20 '15 at 13:32
Go to permissions for that folder, select the option to stop inheriting permissions from it's parent, then give the user the desired level of permissions for that folder (probably Contribute).
