Need Shared Documents and Settings

Guest

Hello. On my home network, I've got a computer that is in charge of
performing all backup operations to a local disk. It will, for instance,
remotely backup specific directories from an NAS as well as remotely backup
other files such as Outlook stores from networked computers (I don't run
Exchange Server). This has up until now worked pretty well, but now that a
couple of my computers have been upgraded to Windows XP Pro from Win2k, and
that this O/S does not allow sharing "Documents and Settings", I'm a bit
stuck. Is there a way of remotely accessing unshareable directories under
Windows XP Pro? Thanks.

Add yourself to the local Administrators group of those Windows XP
Professional computers and then access the Documents and Settings folder
using the root shares.

Windows XP Professional shares the root drives (C$ for C:\, D$ for D:\,
etc...) by default.
