(Basically cos it cutsdown on administration, andI'm lazy.) Are there any security issues runningthis way, or is it muchof a muchness?First of all, I presume that by "file"permissions, you mean "NTFSpermissions" -- which, of course, presumes thatyou're *using* NTFS.If all that's true, then you're probably okay.The remaining risk isthat you may make shares visible and evenmountable (even if all otheraccess is denied) to people whom you might prefernot even know theyexist.
