Yes you will have to change every desktop which had a share to root.
Keep in mind that the http://myibmi:2001 has ways to see who is using that
share. This is what we used versus visiting every desktop throughout our
international domain.

I already use Web Navigator but it only shows me that they are using
/root - not what subdirectory they are ultimately using within /root.

I argued against a root share from the beginning. Thanks to recent
ransomware attacks my warnings were heeded. Luckily they hadn't hit us,
yet.

The decision here was way before my time, but I'm using ransomware as
the justification for the change.
