Hi,

I've got administrator privileges on a small local network. We often
search for documents and files that might have been accidentally put
by a user into wrong folders.

Hoiwever, XP Professional won't let me search from my computer in
program or system folders that are on another computer in my local
area network. This is true, despite the fact that I have admin.
privileges.

Is there any way to reconfigure XP Pro to allow me to search every
folder on remote computers on our LAN? I'd also like to be able to
change file names or even delete the files, and I know which ones I
should be able to change.

Thanks for your help.

Dave
