Running Windows 2000 Advanced Server (no Service Packs).
Found a mysterious folder under C:\Documents and Settings\
called <computername>$
ie: BlackBox-01$ since the name of the computer is BlackBox-01.
What catches my attention:
1) Not all of the servers that are running Win2000 A.S. have this folder.
2) The folder contains following tree structure
BlackBox-01$\ (This name depends on the computer name)
Application Data\
Microsoft\
Internet Explorer\
System Certificates\
My\
Certificates\
CRLs\
CTLs\
Local Settings\ (hidden)
Application Data\ (hidden)
History\ (hidden)
Temp\
Temporary Internet Files\ (hidden)
NTUser.dat (hidden file) (in use)
NTUser.dat.log (hidden file)
NTUser.ini (hidden file)
The only places where I found NTUser.dat* (on other systems) was:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\
C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\
C:\WinNT\Repair\
It's creation date is 08/22/2001. It's modified date is the same.
Does anyone know how this folder may have been created?
Before placing this server on the network, I tighten down the services
and TCP/UDP ports. So I am at a loss as to how this folder may have been
created.
There are no additional users and/or groups created. And I am the only
person with the Administrator password.
Thanks ahead of time.
