When we talk about sharing, we are talking about sharing resources in some network, and using Windows, this is done via the NetBIOS protocol or "SMB". A major problem is that Windows by default, to enable any sharing service, the server is visible across the entire network, even if they try to protect network resources with passwords and usernames strong, something simple that few people know, and that is very useful to hide servers and computers of strategic sectors of a company, is the function of hiding it from the network.
Hiding your precious server on Windows Network
Hiding the server, it continues to offer resources to the network, but it is not listed more in the "Network Neighborhood" or "My Network Places." Putting in the address bar the exact path, you can access the resources of the server or computer normally, it just does hide the icon in the default options of the net.
Digte at the command prompt the following command:
NET CONFIG SERVER
See what happens on the image below and see how to change to hide the server:
Typing right now:
NET CONFIG SERVER /hidden:yes
Something will be displayed after the command was executed successfully. Again without typing the "/hidden:yes", check that the service of hiding the server is active.
To view your network server again, use the command:
NET CONFIG SERVER /hidden:no
Then passes to be visible on the network again.
