In addition to RestrictAnonymous, Windows XP has two other DWORD values you can modify—RestrictAnonymousSAM and EveryoneIncludesAnonymous. Set RestrictAnonymous to 1 to limit access to share information, and set RestrictAnonymousSAM to 1 to prevent enumeration of SAM accounts. Finally, assign EveryoneIncludesAnonymous a value of 0, which will keep null-session users from having any rights. This still allows the establishment of a null session, so basic network resources such as files and printers remain available to all trusted users, but nothing will leak
