RE: limit user to just 1 network folder

Hi Zuke,

According to your description, I understand that you want to limit one
domain user to only see one shared folder in the network. If I have
misunderstood your concern, please feel free to let me know.

Based on my experience and research, there is a new feature "Access-based
Enumeration" included with Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 can achieve
your goal. This allows users of Windows Server 2003-based file servers to
list only the files and folders to which they have access when browsing
content on the file server. This eliminates user confusion that can be
caused when users connect to a file server and encounter a large number of
files and folders that they cannot access.

However, it cannot be achieved in Windows 2000 AD. To achieve your goal,
you might need to upgrade to Windows 2003 AD.

For more information, please refer to the following article:

And you can download it from:

Please note that this tool is based on folder level, we cannot hide the
domain.

Hope it helps.
