Novell Netware Copy

Through exploration on a LAN, I have found either a bug or an oversight on Novell Netware that allows a local user read/write access to any file on drive C (maybe network drives). When clicking on the right button on any file under Windows explorer, the local security program (FoolProof) turns off all selections except for an option called "Netware Copy". If one selects Netware Copy, it asks for a destination and you can type ANY file on drive C and it will either create a new file or overwrite the old file. Under normal usage, drive C is write protected. They're using the latest version of Novell Netware (4 or 5) with an OS of Win95. Can someone test to see if Netware Copy is a flaw or an oversight. I'm also wondering what are the ethics here. If there's something this easy, is it wrong to Netware Copy anything I want? (i.e. move security program, install other apps) <--Yes, I did notify the Admins of security flaws through e-mail but they never responded ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
