Home Directories (WNT)

[Bob_M]

Hi All,

Say I Create a Share called "Home". Domain Users have full control to the share "Home". NTFS under "home" is set to List. "Home" has two folders "Bob" and "Bil". User Bob has full control in "Bob" and Bill has Full Control in "Bill".

Pretty standard config here. When Bob browses to the Share "Home" he can see the "Bill" folder but he has no access. Is there anyway I can set it up so Bob will not even see the "Bill" folder but see the "Bob" folder.

Thanks Bob

You can hide the "home" folder by applying the $ sign after the sharename. Then in user manager for domains under user properties, select the Profile tab, set the path to home directory to \\servername\home$\bob (you can also use
%username%). This way users won't be able to see homedirectories of other users.

Thanks, that should work fine for Home directories. Bob
