RE: SPM2000$ Rouge Share

["Robinson, Jonathon" <Jonathon.Robinson () sykes com>]

If I go to the management console> shared folders> shares> Right-click and
properties> I get the following:

This has been shared for administrative purposes. The share permissions and
file security cannot be set.


Thanks,

What makes you feel it is an administrative share? The $ only means
hidden, not necessarily administrative.

Best Regards,

I have two [NT and 2K] servers that have an administrative share named
SPM2000$. 
This share has full access rights to drive C for the Everyone group. 
I can deactivate it, but since it's an administrative share it's going
to
come back at reboot.

After "Googling" the string, I found something called Service Pack
Manager
2000, but I don't think that's what created this as this software uses
the
default ADMIN$ share.
Have any of you seen this share anywhere before?
 

Thanks,
