default share of windows 2000 server

James is correct (afternoon James)

you can only really change the hidden shares
Disable Windows hidden shares ($)

Start >Run Type "regedit" {enter}

Navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters

Modify or create new REG_DWORD Entries shown below


AutoShareServer
AutoShareWks

Set the values as follows

0 = disable shares
1 = enable

WARNING, some programs and services use the hidden share feature I STRONGLY advise
you carry this out either in a test environment OR on your least used server for a trial period

Afternoon Pete

According to Google (that well known Windows Admin tool) VPHOME and VPLOGON are installed by Norton AntiVirus. Therefore, I would disable these either.

VPHOME and VPLOGON are used for Norton, your clients will no longer get the updates nor register with the console.  Done delete these shares.  There is no reason to.  If you delete the sysvol share AD will break, it actually will reshare itself sometimes, especially if you use netdiag or dcdiag.  Dont elimineate any of these shares, there is no reason to do so, and you will cause a lot of problems

thx for all the answer...thx...

what's  GPOs? James....
