        The windows 95 network security has several loop holes, (One of
which happens to be the Unix Samba program that goes write through the
directories).  One thing I've noticed is that the Net Watch of Windows 95
does *not* register Unix using the computer network.  Is there any Net
security devise for Windows or Dos which will be able to detect a Unix based
Net hacker?  

        Our network consists of Ethernet around the Virginia Tech Campus.
Anyone with Windows 95 networking enable will be able to map and access all
window NT/95 machines with the networking protocols enabled on the Ethernet.
