RE: Windows Share Problem

Hi,

If you have no domain, an external admin have no rights since the security is made individually at each server. So, if you append a '$' at the end of share name, it'll be invisible.

But, I guess it's possible to find a hidden share using network vulnerability scanners like Nessus.

Hope it helps,

Hi List

Is it possible, in a win2K-Environment (nt4-compatibility-mode is on) without active-directory or domain, to grant users a network share on the server which an admin (external it-company with remote access) cannot see or has access to?

Thanx in advance.

kind regards,

IndianZ
