I have a win2k server as a DC with a share on a drive (d$), perms set to everyone. Only the admin account is active, guest is disabled.

I log in locally onto my win2k pro workstation (not into the domain) then from explorer I connect to the share drive on the server and it allows me!!!!! I've not authenticated on the domain. Why?

Thx
 
Ah, got it. I've used the same name and p/word as local admin for the workstation and on the domain. When I connect I'm not logged in so the server requests a login name/pass. 'cos there the same it lets me in.
