systems admin... I am an administrator on the company network... ...what group do I need to be in so that I can see all directories on all machines wether they are shared or not? Or do they have to be shared? If not...how do I make it so that when users log on, a modified hosts file overwrites their existing one, but only does it once? (ie, not every time they log on) Thanksyoumuch.
easiest is probably create a batch file then edit a policy that all PCs will load that runs this batch file. As for seeing ALL folders on ALL machines - you're more than likely need to be sat at each machine, logged in as Admin... unless Active Directory has some fancy function...
pah Just saves trudging round the office I'll have to look into the batch files/policies...not familiar with it
are they part of a domain? if so can you not use //machinename/c$ as the path to each hdd? or are you wanting to propagate the hosts file to each machine every so often like an update?
