    win 7 workstation has unrestricted access to sbs 2003 domain shared and system folders

    win 7 has unrestricted access to sbs 2003 shared and system folders
    How can i stop users from accessing shared folders on the server which they have NO permissions too.. i even tried deny permissions and can still access folders or any other drive on the server

    Running Server sbs 2003 (standard)
    Windows IP Configuration

    Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : SERVER
    Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.local
    Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Hybrid
    IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No
    WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : No
    DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.local

    Ethernet adapter Server Local Area Connection:

    Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
    Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet

    - all workstations are running Windows 7 professional.
    - the server uses no-ip.org
    - router dhcp
    - if the user logs on at the server he is unable to access any of the folders he does not have permission too - BUT from his win7 workstation he can access anything and everthing he desires including system folders and denyed permissions

    You can stop sharing a folder or drive by using the Shared Folders Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in or by using a command prompt. Users connected to a shared folder are disconnected when you stop sharing it. Users may lose data if you stop sharing a folder containing an open shared file without warning. When possible, notify users before you stop sharing a folder.

    To stop sharing a folder by using the Windows interface

    • Open Computer Management. To do so, click Start, then right-click Computer, and then click Manage.
    • If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Yes.
    • In the console tree, click System Tools, then click Shared Folders, and then click Shares.
    • In the details pane, right-click a shared folder, and then click Stop Sharing (this item only appears if you launched Computer Management using an account that is a member of the local Administrators group).

    To stop sharing multiple files, press the CTRL key while clicking the file names, right-click any one of the selected files, and then click Stop Sharing. This removes shared network access to the selected files.
