.

Caution
Creating a UNC share in this way could be a potential security problem in a production
environment, because it allows everyone on your network access to the share. If
creating a UNC folder in a production environment, or if you are not sure that your
network test environment is secure, be sure to take extra security precautions as
necessary to control access to the shared folder. Client systems only require read
access to retrieve updates from the UNC repository, but administrator accounts,
including the account used by ePolicy Orchestrator to replicate data, require write
access. See your Microsoft Windows documentation on how to configure security
settings for shared folders.
