Hi All, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
This should be easy to answer, but I have had zero experience with Samba so |
| 4 |
far and can't readily find the answer: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I have set up a Samba server for a small office and used 'browseable No' |
| 7 |
extensively in the smb.cfg file, to remove a lot of otherwise visible to the |
| 8 |
Windows clients directories. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
This has worked but not enough: The Windows file manager still displays the |
| 11 |
(Linux) user home directory and a file called printers. Is there a way of |
| 12 |
removing these two items from the Windows client view? |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
These are the few relevant excerpts from the smb.cfg file: |
