Windows PC file sharing No access [Description and exceptions] 
Turning a Windows PC into a file server exposes it to hacker attacks that target both inherent weaknesses in the file sharing software and common misconfigurations. Numerous PCs on campus have been successfully compromised via the file sharing service. Please note that the Remote Desktop service (above) allows you to copy files back and forth between your Earth Sciences PC and a remote computer. Access to Windows file sharing can be granted to properly configured and maintained research group Windows PC file servers upon request.
