Unhappy how to?? make shares invisable


Hello,

I have a suse8.1 samba server with a domain server
I have made several users in samba and in linux also i`ve made some groups with users.

group user(s)

group1 : andries
group2 : pieter
group3 : dansen
group4 : andries,pieter,dansen

when i logon on the client (win95) and i`am browsing on the network i see all the groups.

But wat my question is when i logon as andries i only want to see group1 and 4 how can i make the other shares invisable????

I don't know how to make things invisible based on the user who's logged in.
but to make a share invisible to everyone add...
browseable = no

to your share's config.
you can still get to this share by manually typing \\server\\share in windows.

yes thats right but when i am browsing on my network i only want to see the maps witch i can open.

when i am browsing and open a wrong folder it is ask for a password for the user who has the rights to open it.

Do you know if it is possible ??

if you have novell you only see the maps who belongs to you!
