title: Are ADMIN$ and/or IPC$ shares enabled on Windows 10 machines in environments usually?
body: <p>I am setting up a vulnerable windows 10 machine for use in my home testing lab and wonder if there is a business case for companies to usually have the ADMIN$ and/or IPC$ shares open (writable?) in a Windows active directory environment?</p>
  
  <p>Realism is the goal and I would like to hear comments from anyone who knows.</p>
  
  <p>Without these being open then none of the impacket scripts work. For example wmiexec.py or smbexec.py or psexec.py all rely on these shares being open so if they have to be arbitrarily opened then that's not realistic.</p>
