Detailed description
Access-based Enumeration allows users to see only files and folders that they have access to on a file server. This feature is not enabled by default.
To enable this feature, a property must be set on a file share to allow access-based enumeration. To enable this feature on your server, you can download a shell extension that provides both a graphical user interface for enabling access-based enumeration and a command-line interface for managing this feature. When this download is installed, a wizard will run that can automatically enable Access-based Enumeration on the shared folders on your computer. This download includes a whitepaper that provides further details about the shell extension, command line interface, and the NetShareSetInfo
application programming interface (API). This download is available on the Microsoft Download Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=46228.
