I have win2000,sp4 machine that when a user is logged on and they share the c drive as c$ it will change back to unshared after the machine is rebooted.

The machine has a CD-Rom drive D shared as D$ which is not affected by it.

It also doesn't seem to matter who logs into it.

The machine is located in an Active directory OU with several other PCs. All of the PCs with win2000,sp4 have the same problem, the ones with XP don't have the problem in that particular OU. Also, there are no group policies enforced on that OU or inherited from the parent OU.

c$ is for administrative shares only... share the drive with some other name ..
