No problem, I sort of thought this was the case ;-)

To be clear:

Check the 'share' tab, if you see 'Everyone', you do not need to
change
anything in this tab (I have never needed to change anything and now do 
not bother clicking on the tab)

The only tab where you need to make changes is the 'security' tab

Hi Rowland ,

 In some scenarios, we have hundreds of shared folders. We don't want users
to see too many folders, so we configure share permissions and set "hide
unreadable = yes" in smb.conf. then users can only see the folder that he
or she has permissions. This is why we do something in "share" tab.

Best,


yours Adam

Using 'hide unreadable' in smb.conf should have no bearing on the 
'share' tab, it hides files that users cannot read, it does not hide the
share. If you want to hide the entire share from Windows clients, then 
place a '$' on the end of the share name in smb.conf e.g. [share] 
becomes [share$], this would hide it from everyone though.

Just what are you trying to add or remove from the 'share' tab ?
