I'm in a network with multiple users (living in a collective household), with many computers. I have some folders that I want to share with everyone on the network, and some folders that I want to be visible to me only. The public folders is no problem to set up, but I have some problems with the folders I want to share with myself only. I have 3 cumputers myself, all with the same username and password. And when I enter \\myworstation-ip I want to see the public folders and the folders shared to me only, like how the folder \users\myusername is visible to no one but me (so it seems to me atleast), and that is why I want to do it with other folders on my computer, as I don't have everything stored in the default location on the system drive. I am able to share them, so that I'm the only one having access, but I can't seem to figure out how to hide them. I'm aware of how to share with $ to make shares hidden, but then I have to manually type in the name of the share, witch is not what I want to do. Is it any way to use home groups or libraries for this? Having a home group (or library) with shares visible to only me, and have public shares at the same time.

Well if you know scripts to type it in for you, that would work. But I don't think there are many ways to automate the process so you don't have to manually hide certain shares.

senseisan,If you use your own user account on the other machines, you can have mapped drives. Or you can create a batch file to map drives for you.
