Chris, That's actually the default behavior on my boxes. I haven't nailed down the particulars because I have to do more testing, but the key is the directory permissions. Samba allows us to emulated a MS server, but the permissions controlling access are still in linux. I have to go see a customer this morning, but I'll be back this afternoon and will continue to test. I've already made some shares visible that hadn't been and then taken them back away from the main browse list. However, specifying a specific share name makes it show up in the browser even if it's not accessable. I need to test to see whether this is because they were already resolved on my test box or if that is default behavior. I'll get back to you as I know more. This is what I have so far... You definitely want browsable set to no in the homes section. Likewise, since there is only one homes defination, a valid users statement won't work. Your home directory permissions should be 755 or drwxr-xr-x. Your user directories should be 700 or drwx------. I'll add more later...
