In order to handle multi-user concurrency issues Access creates an LDB file when
the first person opens the file, modifies it as users come and go and
automatically deletes it when the last person closes the file. This means that
all users of the file must have permissions to create, modify, and delete files
on the folders where the front end, back end, and workgroup file are located.
You can make the shared folder for the back end hidden to reduce the chances of
people browsing to it in the network, but you can't restrict the users ability
to create, modify, and delete files in that folder.
