RE: Trouble with shared folders on DC when using unc path

Hi Mike,

This is the Most Annoying Change that Microsoft EVER made to default
behaviour. I have been an Admin for 15 years and I have never had so many
headaches as I have had forgetting to change the Share Permissions from Read
(now default on Windows 2003) back to Full Control. This has cost me
countless hours troubleshooting why things won't work until I realize I just
forgot to change the Share Permissions back.

Cheers,
Lara
