Also can do it with a few net stop commands and stop the service altogether...you could easily put these in a command file with a few wait statements. Remember to restart the services you stopped... Jim -[ Disabling the NetBT driver ]- This completely disables SMB on a system, i.e both client-side (workstation service) and server-side (server service). You first need to stop the workstation and server services (and all services that depend on them and may still run): C:\WINNT>net stop rdr The Workstation service is stopping. The Workstation service was stopped successfully. C:\WINNT>net stop srv The Server service is stopping. The Server service was stopped successfully. Once these services are stopped, the NetBT driver can be stopped: C:\WINNT>net stop netbt The NetBios over Tcipip service is stopping. The NetBios over Tcipip service was stopped successfully. To disable the NetBT driver, the following registry value must be changed: Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\ Value: Start Type: DWORD value (REG_DWORD) Content: 4 On Windows XP, you can use the following command: C:\WINDOWS>sc config netbt start= disabled On 4/4/07, Sorin Srbu <sorin.srbu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Hi all, Isn't there *any* way to programmatically disable Netbios over TCP/IP? We use static IP:s so setting it on the dhcp-server isn't an option. All answers I find on Google seems to point to the graphical GUI, which isn't very helpful if you want to change a couple of dozen machines or so... Anybody?
