Hello,
The company I work for provides PC's to all employees. In addition they have work stations wired into the network (some shared and some personal) On top of that we have whats called a "share drive". In this drive, everyone has a folder and the contents can be accessed from any computer but they can be accessed by anyone so we do not store sensitive stuff inside them.
I brought my mac to work, connected it to the network and noticed in the finder that I could now see both drives and computers that I could not normally see from one of the shared PCs or my personal. I could see both computers wired into the network as well as entire drives filled with data. At first, I thought it was an addition to the shared network but because I can only see it on my mac, I'm guessing thats not the case. Some of the computer links clicked say, "offline" but some of the stuff was fully accesible.
I opened some files and I guess now I am afraid that network administrators are gone track my computer and see that i gained access to this stuff. I guess I am afraid I will get in trouble. Can any of you networking folks shed some light on this?
