How do I stop the hidden Autoshares?

Recommended Posts

Morning all.

 

I've got a Win2K and a XP box that I'm trying to make secure but for the life of me I can't stop the C$ autoshare from starting up and coming back after reboot. How the hell do I stop it? I'm pretty much gettin frustrated with Microsoft at this point.

 

Thanks in advance either way.

Excellent info Sampson.

 

I just had one other question concerning this registry modification. I noticed that these new values not only remove the C$ share but the ADMIN$ share as well. I was just wondering what effect would that have on a Win2K Adv Server Domain Controller running AD services?

 

Thanks so much Sampson either way.

I didn't have a problem. At the same time, I didn't test it all that thoroughly. I was after security at the time.

I've not tried this in a domain model, but I would guess that it would probably toast the whole setup. This of course, is just a guess. Give it a shot and let us know smile
