How to get back to admin shares ala' \\machine\c$\directory'?
Two machines, same login name and password and admin. on both. Trying to get to \\machine\c$ from the other box.I had admin shares working in Vista w/ the reg. key addition of tokenpolicy something something, (don't have it in front of me). I'm trying to do the same thing in Win7 and added that to the registry but I can't get to c$, it asks for an alpha user password. What sharing options do I need to have set in Win7 to allow this? Thanks -

You need two things:
1. Enable admin share, same as Vista
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947232
Enable admin shares via GPO or reg key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanmanServer\Parameters
AutoShareWks DWORD=1
Command line:
REG ADD "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanmanServer\Parameters" /v AutoShareWks /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
2. Disable UAC on local accounts remotely accessing he system (does not affect domain accounts which are in local admin group):
LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/951016
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy DWORD=1
Command line:
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System" /v LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
