Hi,

I am not sure if there is a way to "hide" Shares unless you share
them with the $. Also publishing in Active Directory and having them
show up in My Network Places are two completely different things by
the way. One is DNS and one is NetBios.

How I do it is take away users ability to see "entire Network" with
Group Policies and then just put "network places" that I choose in
their "Net hood" folder on their profile.

Cheers,
Lara
