Samba - don't display shares if you don't have permissions?


Hi,

I've got Samba up and running fine, I was just wondering that even though I have given some users acces to specific shares, they can still see the shares, even though they aren't allowed to access them.

Is there any way setting Samba to not display those shares to which the user has no permission to access?

Thank you.

Add browseable=no to the share option.
