I want to map a drive to a share for all users say "F:\". And this share
will have the companies user directories in this share. I want them to only
see the user directories they have rights to see. Instead of all of the
directories being listed. Can anyone give me an idea on how to do this?

Here is the path F:\user and inside of this directory would be all of the
users. But I only want them to see the directories they have rights too. I
have played around with the rights on the User share and I can lock them out
of the other 200 directories but they still can see them all. This will
just add confusion to the end users.

I hope this makes sense..

Thanks,

BiG
 
The only way to do this with Windows is to share the user's home directory
with the "$" sign.

Example of the path would be F:\users\usersdir$. The "$" sign makes the
share hidden. You will have to know the path in order to map to the folder,
you will not see it by browsing.
