I'm sure that's true. I've just never been an advocate for peer-to-peer file sharing. The one exception is whatever server(s) on the network have files to share. They are servers, so their role is to share. The workstation's role is to consume the shared network resources. Workstations, IMO, have no business accessing files or other resources directly from other workstations. So even back in NT4 days, I would turn of file and printer sharing on the workstations, making exceptions when people actually needed to share a printer connected directly to their workstation.
