My problem with the suggestions made is that it removes the password
protection from the shares, which is not acceptible. I know the users just
have to walk up to someone else's PC to acces their shares but that's a lot
more obvious than just everyone being able to access every share from any PC
The problem with installing startup scripts is that I would have to visit
every site and update up around 120 PCs.
I'm now installing Fedora 16 on my server and am going to re-do the last 4
days work
