share [g+] share [fb]

I have a Windows 2008 server with various software packages installed on it.

I want to know what network shares my server is sharing (and I want to know that from within the server, not by trying to access the shares from another computer).

Does anyone know how to do that?

Start -> Run -> compmgmt.msc -> OK.

Computer Management (Local) -> System Tools -> Shared Folders -> Shares.

This will show you all the current shares on the system as well as allow you to control them, change permissions, modify access, etc.

From a command prompt, enter the command:

net share

This will show all shares on the system, including hidden.

start > run

\\127.0.0.1

will do the trick

PLEASE NOTE THIS WILL NOT SHOW HIDDEN SHARES.

Actually, that does not do the trick. Hidden shares (ADMIN$ C$ IPC$ print$, etc.) are not shown. – KCotreau Jul 11 '11 at 15:57
