Windows NT network resources--such as file services and print services, for example--are allocated from the servers to the client computers as shares. These shares are given names, and accounted for by way of these names. You manage shares and other server-based resources by way of the Server Manager tool.
You use Server Manager for many common tasks, including:
Setting and managing share permissions for users, viewing a computer's shares, adding new shares, and stopping sharing directories
Checking who is connected to which server, for how long, and which resources they have open
Configuring the Windows NT Directory Replicator service
Specifying path names for logon scripts (script file names are specified by way of User Manager for Domains)
Sending and managing administrative alerts
Managing domains and domain controllers
