Re: Home directory permissions. What to set?

You did not state you server OS version.
If it is Windows Server 2003 you might look at
"Access Based Enumeration" (search on @ ms.com, google, etc.
I am not sure how that would fly with all aspects of your
existing deployment, Macs, etc. but it is as close as what
Microsoft has released can come to your requirement.

I was looking for an answer to a related question and found this
thread.

I have a similar setup with a \home with individual user folders in it
(eg \home\jsmith, etc).

I have set \home up as a share, but without individual shares for
users.

This works well for PC's as their login script attaches directly to
their personal folder.

However, we also have macs on our network. When they attach to \home,
they see all of the folders (though if they click them, they disappear)
and can only access their own. I would like them to just see their own
folder. How do I do this?

In my current config, they have Read & Execute on the Home folder and
Change and Read under Share permissions. On their personal folders,
they have full control.

How do I make the other folders not show up? Is it a setting on those
folders or on the home folder? Finally, since it's 100+ folders, is
there an easy way to change it on all of them at once?

Thanks for any insights.
