Network Share Persistence

F= or extra security against Ransomware or Malware attacks it may be desirable= to ensure that backup targets on a NAS or a Windows shared folder are disc= onnected as soon as your backup has finished.  


If necessary, Macrium Reflect will automatic= ally create a network connection whenever a backup is created on a network = share. Network connections persists= until the number of seconds in the Windows network session 'time-out' valu= e is reached. This value is Windows setting and defaults to 15 minutes.&nbs= p; Since Windows doesn't share credentials and only one user can hav= e an authenticated network access to a share at any one time, concurrent co= nnections are not allowed by Windows networking.

How to disconnect active shares

Run the following command in an elevated command prompt:

=20
net use /delete =
\\server\sharename
=20


How to change the idle timeout value for all network sh= are connections

Run the following command in an elevated command prompt:

=20
net config serve=
r /autodisconnect:number
=20

Where number is the idle timeout in seconds. Use 0 for very quick disconnections and -1 to never= disconnect.


Macrium Reflect also has a way to automatically del= ete active connections


Authenticated Network connections= created by Macrium Reflect at the start of a backup can be automatically t= erminated on application exit rather than waiting for the default Windows t= imeout.

To enable this, create the following = registry entry: 


Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MA= CHINE\SOFTWARE\macrium\reflect\Settings
Name: DeleteNetwork= Connection
Type: DWORD 32 bit
Value: 1
