Gordon, is it not correct that any share is only reachable in combination with the logon server/netbios name: \\server\share Just because a share exists you can't automatically connect to it without providing all the above information. Matching share names on a network should never cause a problem as the server name will (ok should) never be the same. There are many cases where multiple PDC servers (separate domains) and workgroup servers are active on the same LAN. Large school campuses, large corporate clients, etcetera. IMHO if something nasty is happening it is because the client is incorrectly configured. The current samba setting has all these shares visable. We have all been testing the current set up and I have not heard any negative reports. To leave these shares as they are currently provides options that I have discussed previously. To remove these shares takes away these options. So, to conclude, I continue to disagree with your desire to remove what we currently have available.
