on our little network i have on:
Personal File Sharing
Windows Sharing
Personal Web Sharing
Remote Login
Printer Sharing

Now when a mac connects to this mac and logs in and uses somebody else folder it only shows the stuff inside the Public Folder.
On a pc though when they login and uses somebody else folder they can see that whole users User folder.
they cant do anything but i am wondering why is this?
they connect via //10.10.1.56\Me
so why does it not just show the public to them instead of all the files and folders.
i don't want the pc user to view all the other users files and folders even though they cant open them. but i dont want to disable it so they cant connect to the mac
