Gerard,

      Change browseable = no.  That way the share disappears from the browse list.  To allow the valid users to see the share, use a login script to map the share to a drive letter.  If you have user names longer than 8 characters, it has been my experience that kernel oplocks must be turned off to allow the login script to execute reliably.

Hi,

I have a Samba share set up that my Windows 95 clients use to access directories on my Red Hat Linux system. I have set valid users for each share but when the Users browse in Windows 95 they see ALL the shares and not just the shares that they are valid users for.  When the User clicks on a share that they are not a valid user for then samba asks for a password and wont allow them in anyway.  BUt if they are not a valid user I would like it set so that they dont even see the share.  Is this possible?

 

Here is an example of my share

 

[KB_PRM]

path = /home/httpd/html/knowledge_base/staff_department/planning_resource_manage

ment

browseable = yes

public = no

writable = yes

valid users = prdmgr2 intramgr

 

I hope someone can help me.
