Windows, network safety without password
#1
I'm running a Windows 7 box with Gotham 13.2. Currently I'm streaming data from an external HD attached via usb (will upgrade this to an unraid server at some point) and want to add netflix streaming. In order to set the computer to start directly into XBMC on boot, I set windows to not request a password on startup. I'll have a cable modem feed a router, the router will go to my personal desktop, my girlfriends desktop, and the xbmc box.

What security issues will I have if xbmc is connected to the internet w/ no password requested? Remote login is disabled. Is there anything else I should be concerned about?

Thanks

There shouldn't be any issue as far as the internet goes.

If you don't have a open wifi there isn't any problems. If you do have it, everybody can login on your network through wifi, and have access to everything.

No Login code on the PC is only a problem if it's getting stolen.
