Re: Restrict certain file types on a Windows 2000 share

HI Mary Hendrix,

Probably you could write a script (WSH or VBS) and store it in the
shared folder itself (with proper permissions so that others wouldn't
able to read and execute or modify its contents), containing a check
for any file other than .doc or .xls (and any other which you wish to
be stored). If this script finds any such file (other than .doc and
.xls), it should execute a delete command on such files.

Hey there,

First I would like to thank all the answers I've received on my previous post.

Second, I was wondering if there is a way to prevent users from
storing mp3 or other file types on a shared disc that is supposed to
be used only to store .doc, .xls and so.

Thanks in advance

Mary
