I'm forwarding you a couple messages. I haven't run SAMBA myself, but people who have have been able to read files on my machine that aren't supposed to be shared. -rich On Wed, 4 Oct 1995, Henry Sanders (Exchange) wrote:

FYI for those of you still running WFW. Could anybody confirm or deny that Microsoft has patched this hole in the shipping version of 95? As with most such serious "oopsies," Microsoft has not made any information on this issue available in their Knowledge Base.

Nope, it is still there.

Can you demonstrate that this is true? I'll give you an account on my box. I've received several notes and flames that the problem either never existed (which I know is untrue) or was fixed at a specified (often specified different) patch level.

I should really try this myself, but I don't have time, and the only UNIX box I can really mess with is my Linux box, which is also my Win95 box.
