T 5.45 Trying Out Passwords under WfW and Windows 95

Within a peer-to-peer network under WfW, access rights to directories are realised by the allocation of passwords. No distinction is made between individual users. Access to a shared directory and the files stored inside is only granted if the correct password is entered. This is not the case for Windows 95 used within NetWare networks. Therefore, in principle, it is possible to determine the access passwords to shared directories by trial and error under WfW. As there is no restriction on the number of unsuccessful attempts when entering passwords, this promises to be very successful if a certain systematic approach is used.
