hide schedule task and printer and fax icon in...

[Guest]

hi,
how can i disable the feature in which when one computer join an
workgroup or domain, by virtue of connectivity, SCHEDULE TASK and PRINTER AND
FAX icons appers when browsed through another computer. well, nothing is
shared in the host computer then also this comes, this may be default setup
in Xp pro which is the OS.

i just want that when nothing is shared, nothing must be shown on others
computer when browsed. how can this be done???

its not that am completely isolating the computer, just SHOW NOTHING is
the concept. i may later on share some folders but it should be my share.

any help

From the workstation, type:

net config server /hidden:yes

This turns off the workstation's broadcasting of itself. You can still
manually access the workstation's shares using \\workstation\share but it
will not show up in My Network Places.
