ABSTRACT
The ability to enable remote users to share resources on NT workstations and servers represents one of the major benefits of the use of this operating system. By enabling employees in an organization to share access to drives, folders, and files, you can significantly enhance productivity. However, you also provide the potential for others with access to your organization’s network to either intentionally or unintentionally read or modify existing data as well as store new files whose contents could have an adverse effect upon the operation of your organization. Thus, it is important to understand the options associated with Windows NT resource sharing as they control access to shares as well as govern the level of security associated with network-based resources.
