Hi
We have a shared folder on Windows 2000 server which our clients access to
read some files from there. Client Application map the shared folder using a
fixed credential of the user on the server. The share is always set with the
appropriate permissions with the user on the server to be able to read the
files from the share.

My question is, is it possible to set the share permissions in such a way
that clients can not see the folder list but can read the files if they know
the file name. I tried setting "No Folder List" permission to the server user
but that takes away the read permission also and the client can not read any
file from that folder.

Thanks for your help
-Arun
