Hmmm,
"Seen," meaning findable in a search or "Seen" meaning they can log into their
shares and make them drives on the desktop?
When you right-click Network Neighborhood, select Map Network Drive, and say
\\servername\username for the network path, what happens? Does it ask for a
password and then rehject it? Or does it map the drive and then reject any
attempt to write? These are very different problems.
