Hi Don,
I have verified some things with respect to UseAuthentication=0 in CE 5.0. Unfortunately this does not work and it is known broken in CE 5.0. We did make the fix for CE 6.0. There are no updates for this issue in CE 5.0.
What errors are you seeing from the Remote Admin component?
Sorry for the inconvenience,

Hi Alexander,
Thanks for your help.
I went through the process of creating the file server and still I believe
the registry key
[KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\SMBServer\Shares]
"UseAuthentication"=dword:0
Is not working.
I then went back to the documentation concerning this as a known issue that
has been resolved.
Apparently the issues has been solved in the april update for Platform
Builder. Since in this documentation it suggests that the update will not
work unless all previous Platform Builder updates have been installed. This
got me thinking that I have been making a mistake by not installing all the
updates for Platform Builder 5.0. The other thing is I had all ready
installed the april update before reading it carfully. I am not sure if you
can install updates out of order? So intalled the updates that come as one
file for 2005. Then I installed the updates from 2006. I checked the clean
before building option in Platform Builder and rebuild the image. I still
had to use the remoteadmin utility to set permissions in order to map it on
my XP machine but to my suprise the other thing which I had been working on
which is the mounting of the OS onto the compact flash started working. I
thought to my self, updates are good! I then downloaded the January update
for this year rebuilt the OS and now the RemoteAdmin utility gives me errors
when I try to open it on my XP machine. Does anyone have any ideas about why?
(A) the registry key
[KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\SMBServer\Shares]
"UseAuthentication"=dword:0
is not working
(B) the ability to run RemoteAdmin has stopped. I believe due to the
January update for Platfrom Builder

Hi Don,
You can do this by creating the necessary registry settings and adding them
to your project.reg file before you create your image.

Reading the full-thread it seems that you were having problems with this.
Please let me know if you are unable to configure server still with this
information and where you are getting stuck.
Also, what file sharing scenario are you trying to get working? CE to CE,
XP to CE?
Thanks,
