Spaces in commands• In Windows 9x, command.com doesn’t allow

spaces • In Windows NT Workstation and later, cmd.exe

treats spaces as delimiters and treats each word after the command as a separate parameter

• To force the command interpreter to recognize the spaces, enclose in quotation marks any file or folder names that include spaces

Assigning NTFS permissions• Simple File Sharing:– Windows XP Home – Windows XP Media Center Edition– Windows XP Professional non-domain members

• Windows Vista doesn’t use Simple File Sharing• Can disable Simple File Sharing in Windows XP

Professional• Effective permissions = sum of share and NTFS

permissions
