Access-Based Enumeration - A new powerful funtion in Windows Server 2003

If you are an experienced IT Engineer or System Administrator, you must have met this situation:

Some people in the organization have no permission to access some specific shared folders on the File Server. However, they are still able to see those shared folders listed in Windows Explorer. Administrators can hardly hide those shared folders to make those people without permissions cannot see them.

Now, a new powerful tool is coming out: the abetool. This tool will enable you to hide the shares to those people don't have permissions. Everyone will only be able to see the shares which they have permissions to access.

As I know, the abetool will only be able to run on Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 and X64 versions. If you need more detailed information, please reference the Windows Server official web site when the Service Pack 1 ships.
