They are called administrative shares.....

I had tried ,such as, net share c$/delete, but , when I restart the problem still was.. :confused:

Try this link:http://support.microsoft.com/default...314984&sd=tech
Deleting Default Administrative Shares for Current and Future Sessions

WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

To delete the hidden administrative shares for all root partitions and volumes (such as C$) and the system root folder (ADMIN$) and prevent Windows from re-creating them, add an AutoShareWks DWORD value to the following registry key and set its value data to 0:

The quick and dirty solution is to use a batch file with the net share command in it.
Place the file in the all users startup folder so it is run everytime a user logs in...

I have got two methods:
1,modify the registry,that's dangerous,inaddition,how to modify ?:(
2,use a batch file, I'll try ,
first ,write net share command in a notebook ,and then save it as .bat, that's easy,
thx so much... ;)

if you don't need any filesharing capabilities then just disable the service "server", this would solve your problem...

change to linux .... lol but I think you can stop the share using MMC.

killa is right. Administrative shares is an option. Just deactivate it. No service need to be deactivated.

****, the IPC$ wasn't deleted becaus of system error 5
and the service is closed ,than my browser closed too.
How can I do ? my os is XP with servic pack 1,thx... :(

Linux is wonderful,but ,as u know, I am just a newbie... :p

very easy - back up your registry just in case

1. Open Regedit
2. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> System -> CurrentControlSet -> Control -> Lsa -> restrictanonymous
3. Change "Value Data" from 0 to 1
4. This will disable remote logon to a null IPC$ share

thank u very much, later, I'll have a try. :)

Can I find and modify in local computer policy ?
in fact, I tried and can't find IPC$..

I can't delete IPC$ the same as before.. :o

TomYahoo,

By default, if you delete the C$, D$, etc.. Administrative shares, they will be recreated when you reboot. To disable this feature, edit:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters

Double click on AutoShareServer and set it to 0 to disable it for a server.
Double click on AutoShareWks and set it to 0 to disable it for a workstation.
If the entries are not present, Add Value of type REG_DWORD. The Range is 0 (disable) or 1 (enable - the default).

thx all the same, I'm sure I will try... :(

atticus nice post, after the edit :P

i haven't tried this on XP but it works fine on 2k, enter this in the run box to open up the "manage shares" box:

rundll32.exe ntlanui.dll,ShareManage

highlight the share and click 'stop sharing'

My solution wasn`t adequate?"

no actually your sulotion was more than adequate. i rebooted and found the ipc$ share back which is why i came back to this thread to make that known.

hopefully that didn`t come across as sarcastic...i was just wondering is all.

i thought you were being a little testy but i had to let it slide because you were right ;-)

by using my method (posted earlier) you don't have to delete it, and when people try to use the IPC$, their side will say it works, but it doesn't give them any access to your side. furthermore, if you are trying to remotely access your computer you don't want to disable your IPC...
