And how to to disable file/print sharing for connections coming into our
LAN(outside connections), without access problem for us?
Lan connected to switch, and switch connected to router. We have no access
to this router. There are also another's groups which get internet
connection from this router(they icons are visible in My Network Places) Our
Lan must be fully inaccessible to them and for others WAN.
