AFAIR there weresome for Workstation, but the server ones were the important ones.
But even if the registry settings are corrected, they can be reset to bad values during MS updates
"optimizing" your machine. As security gets beefed up all the time, checking those settings from a vfp app
is a PITA, as server should be off limits to the app ;-)
