Unfortunately what the User Manager creates is a not a true share. The actual share is the directory above the user directory. NT server controls access to the sub-directory through directory ownership permissions not through share permissions. (On NT the 2 concepts are different.) I don't believe that hiding these pseudo-shares is possible.

I never understood why MS decided to use such a kludgy procedure for creating user directories. I may be paranoid, but I suspect they did it to make NT workstation incompatible with UNIX & Netware servers.

My recommendation is never use the User manager to create user shares. Write a script that creates more standard user shares.
