Hi, I setup windows file sharing, but I am shocked that by default it shares the entire Users home folders!!

Is there any way to disable this through smb.conf? I want to just have a single share available to windows users, not my entire Home folder.

Also I added the hide dot files directive to smb.conf and it didn't appear to do anything. However when I issued the killall -HUP smbd command it said No matching processes were found. :|
