How to disable UNC paths?

[Guest]

Hi! I want to know how to disable UNC paths in "Open" or "Save as..." dialog
boxes like in notepad? I want to block users from typing "\\Server" in the
dialog box so that they can't browse the ntwork that way.

Thanks

If you disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP, nobody will be able to browse anything.
What's your ultimate goal here? I usually set up shares with a $ at the end
(makes them hidden) and you ought to be controlling access via share & NTFS
permissions (even if you also want to prevent browsing, etc).
