Hello.
I need to know if I can prevent an user (the guest user, for example) of
accessing a while drive. I have WinXP SP1.
Thanks in advance.
 
Damian,

Yes, you can. Load the Guest account's hive
(http://www.dougknox.com/xp/tips/xp_adv_reg_editing.htm) and apply this
policy: NoViewOnDrive:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows200...2000/techinfo/reskit/en-us/regentry/93573.asp

Using that method, application can still write to the drive. To prevent that
assign appropriate permissions for that folder(s)

Thanks for helping!
Even though I did this, files can still be accessed. When logged on with an
account that has no access to, for example the D drive, you can go to
Start --> Run or just the address bar of any opened folder and type "D:\"
and there'll be a list with the folders, and you can go to "D:\Example\" and
it will list the files like "D:\Example\File1.txt" and by selecting that,
that files is opened.
Did I do something wrong?
 
Damian,

It works fine here. Did it through Group Policy Editor and not through registry directly.

29.6 Damien Martyn throws the ball lazily in and Gilchrist misses it. It runs all the way to the boundary for four!

29.1 Kasprowicz is angling the ball in at Pathan's legs, and he defends with a straight bat. The next delivery is a no ball.

28.6 Sehwag goes for the big shot, hitting against the spin down to long on for four. (Ind. 1 / 71)

28.4 Pathan works the ball forward of square on the leg side as they scurry for a single.

28.2 The ball hits a footprint on the pitch and turns sharply away, pulled up just short of the boundary. Shepherd calls byes.

28.1 Sehwag smashes the ball through mid wicket for a big four as Warne is brought back on.

32.3 Warne has the world record. Gets the ball to move away from Pathan who gets a thick edge on it to the safe hands of Hayden in first slip. The Aussies in the crowd go mad as Warne holds the ball up to show them. 533 Test Wickets, CONGRATULATIONS!!

Great leggie, Warne!
