I have a stupid question:

I have a folder which is shared R/O for everyone (guest).

Is there a way I can tell who is looking at that folder (or has that
folder mapped)?

Chris,

Look at (Control Panel - Administrative Tools - ) Computer Management - System
Tools - Shared Folders - Sessions. This will show you who has an active session
on that computer (and the IP address that they connected from). Shares will
show you which shares have active sessions. And Open Files show you, by folder,
who's looking.

No, Chris. Asking questions is not stupid. NOT asking questions is
stupid. And asked questions aren't stupid either.

I know. My point was that a little more digging and I could have come up
with the answer on my own.

But thanks.
