 Is there a way to globally change all directory permissions references
that say Everyone to Authenticated Users?

We're going to start allowing some outside access to our internal
network and I need to tighten things up first.

but . . . what do you believe you will accomplish ? as Authenticated
Users is Everyone unless you are allowing Everyone to include
anonymous. (Just trying to make sure . . . )

Thanks Steve - right on.
As I do not think I have ever run a machine with Guest enabled
it seems I all too easily forget about that appendix.

For instance, I have logons disabled from 12 AM to 5 AM. Sometimes an
employee will show up a few minutes before 5 and will logon onto their
PC without logging onto the network so they can check POP3 email and
access the Internet. They can also go directly to read-only network
resources and gain access without logging into our Windows network
first. My thinking was they were able to do this because I had the
permissions on those read-only resources (files) set with the Everyone
group instead of the Authenticated Users group. Am I mistaken?
