WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
Create values for AutoShareServer and AutoShareWks:
In the registry, locate the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters On the Edit menu, click Add Value. Type AutoShareServer, click REG_DWORD, and then click OK. Type 0, and then click OK. On the Edit menu, click Add Value. Type AutoShareWks, click REG_DWORD, and then click OK. Type 0, and then click OK.Note: Sometimes the values are already present, especially after use of a policy that affects these entries. In addition, on Windows 2000 you are not required to add the AutoShareWks value.
Quit the registry, and then restart the computer.
This process can easily be done through a policy. The path for the system policy is System Policy Editor\Windows NT Network\Sharing\Create Hidden Drive Shares. |
