Greetings friends,

First of all I want this year is just beginning is full of achievement and success for all.

I'm over here because I have the following problem, running the RSoP to verify the GPO and after a long period of inactivity, the system returns me an error indicating that the resource ADMIN $ not found, I proceeded to check in and see the Computer Management that does not exist in the shared folders as does the IPC $.

I checked the following:
I am entering the domain administrator account
Active Server Service
File and Printer Sharing is active.

A thousand thanks in advance.

Usually server service is responsible for creating admin shares.

But there is a registry hack to disable creating the admin shares, if the below DWORD value exist in the following key then delete it.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanManServer\Parameters
DWORD: AutoShareWks

Maybe this will solve your problem.

Thanks a lot for your replay,

I check the registry and there isn't the AutoShareWks Key.

Dou you have another suggest?

by adumith

Please double check whether the AutoShareServer (instead of AutoShareWks) registry value existed and has the value 0. After you delete it, check how it works if you restart the Service Server.

That?s all....
