I have a one hour web based class I teach UNDERSTANDING HACKER TOOLS AND HOW TO PROTECT YOUR DATA - email me if you are interested. Anyhow - From a DOS prompt you can issue NET commands. Two useful commands are NET VIEW and NET USE. To view the resources on a computer with IP address 10.0.0.199 try NET VIEW \\10.0.0.199. You can then issue a NET USE to map a drive letter. For help enter NET /?.

Hacking Exposed second edition covers in explicit detail exactly what you want.

Many of the vulnerabilities stem from information gathering (enumerating user accounts and shares) to buffer over flows (denial of service) to password hacking (passwords are encrypted when sent on the network, but they can be "sniffed" and then brute force attacked).

Misconfiguration is the most likely root cause.

The first question is do you have a firewall. Next is you will have to turn off your netbios over tcp/ip. There are many tools and methods one may hack into your system.
