How to Close All Files Opened by Network Clients from the Command Line
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article: 290585 - This article describes how to close all open files on a Windows NT 4.0-based computer or Windows 2000-based computer from the command line. You can use this command to close files on the computer where the files reside, which you may
find most useful when you run it prior to backup procedures in
environments where users do not log off, disconnect, or close
files prior to scheduled backup procedures. This command only
affects files that are open from SMB clients. It does not affect
interprocess communication (IPC) or remote procedure call (RPC)
connections, HTTP requests, or files that are in use by FTP
clients
HOW TO: Connect to Shared Folders Over the Network (on a Domain)
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article: 300856 - This step-by-step guide
describes how users can connect to shared folders on a computer in
a Windows 2000-based domain. A Windows 2000-based computer can
function in either a domain environment with centralized security
and management or as a stand-alone computer. If a Windows
2000-based computer is configured as a stand-alone computer, it
can join other stand-alone computers in a workgroup. One of the
main reasons for doing this is to share files and folders over the
network. This document assumes that the computers are running
TCP/IP as the network protocol.
HOW TO: Create and Delete Hidden or Administrative Shares on
Client Computers
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article: 314984 - This step-by-step
article describes how to create and delete hidden or
administrative shares on Windows XP Professional-based, Windows
2000 Professional-based, and Windows NT 4.0 Workstation-based
computers. A hidden share is identified by a dollar sign ($) at
the end of the share name. Hidden shares are not listed when you
look through the shares on a computer or use the net view
command. The versions of Windows that are listed at the beginning
of this article create hidden administrative shares that
administrators, programs, and services can use to manage the
computer environment on the network. |
