David Law Pointed out the services within an AppleTalk network (should)
would require additional username and password entries before use.
While in principal I agree, I wanted to quickly remind him that guest
accounts are default in the Apple shema and that the ability exists for
anyone to easily make their Mac a file server, with or without passwords.
While it is equally possible to make other systems avialable without
passwords, there is a different mindset in place here and I personally assume
the Mac users are likely to make the root disk available to guest users
read-write. (OK another personnel problem, BUT - the more confident I can be
about who has access to the network, then the more time I have to find and
resolve these issues without incident.)
Thanks For listenting---
