Prevent sharing of Drop Box
Authored by: kyngchaos on Nov 07, '03 11:44:40AM

This is a bit odd - since it's a drop box (write only), you would think that the offending user on the network would have figured that out and stopped dumping stuff into it that they can't retrieve. Unless they're just being malicious.

Anyways, 2 other options:

1 - just delete the drop box folder, no need to change permissions.

2 - to turn off the Public share altogether, get the SharePoints preference pane. You can turn off Public shares for all users, and create other "Normal" shares like back in the ol' MOS9 days (gives you better control of who can access what).
