administrative shares

P

Pavel Hrabal

Hello everybody,

I want to allow my server operators (not domain admins) to
be able to connect to administrative shares (//computer/C$
etc.). Is there any way how to do it?

I have found, that it should work, when the users are
members of the "Server Operators" group, but in my
enviroment (Win2000 domain controllers & Active Directory)
it's not working. Am I doin' something wrong?

Thanks,
Pavel

Hello Pavel,

1. Log on as an administrator.

2. Go into File Manager and highlight the share you want to give Server
Operators permissions to.

3. Choose 'Disk' from the toolbar menu and select 'Share As...'

4. In the Shared Directory dialogue box, select the 'New Share' button.
Enter the share name, path, and comment.

5. Select the 'Permissions...' button. Add the Server Operators group
and grant its members full control. Remove the group Everyone.



The Server Operators will now be able to access this share with the share
name you specified.
