just to clarify this a bit, you want to have a share called directory_1.
In this share you want to have subdirectorys which are invisible to the users, but writeable, like the so called "hidden-folders" in windows.
is this correct?
Then you need to set up the mapping for the "hidden"-flag of windows. Have a look at the manpage for smbd.conf and search for "map hidden". This flag allows the mapping of one of the unix-executable-bit's to the windows hidden-flag. Christoph

Nothing works !
- First the parameters is "browseable" or "browsable" ?
- I have created with the Windows Explorer a directory "test" under the directory "myshare" and modified the /etc/samba/smb.conf as : [myshare] path = /myshare guest only = Yes guest ok = Yes public = Yes writable = Yes create mask = 0775 browseable = Yes
[test] path = /myshare/test guest only = Yes guest ok = Yes public = Yes writable = Yes create mask = 0775 browsable = No
[test2] path = /myshare/test2 guest only = Yes guest ok = Yes public = Yes writable = Yes create mask = 0775 browseable = No
- Then I Stop and Restart the SMB service
Now the "test" AND "test2" directy are visible by the Windows Explorer !

If you want a "share" to be hidden from browsing, one option is to

[myshare]
Change it to
[myshare$]
And the windows browser will ignore it unless you type in the share
name in
the address bar.
That works for both Windows and Linux hosting servers.

Hello,
I am configuring PCs on Windows W2K to access to a LINUX Server where Samba is mounted
Is-it possible to do this ?
Directory_1 : Browseable (then visible with the Network Favorits) -Sub_Directory_1a : NOT Browseable (unvisible) BUT Writable -Sub_Directory_2a : " " "
If not, then just this ?
Directory_1 : NOT Browseable (unvisible) BUT Writable
Thanks
Albert
