Is there a way to share everything on my computer except one folder. We are using Netware 4.11 and Win 98. I know I could not share that folder and turn sharing on on all the others but is that the easiest way to do it?

in win9x you could chose the folder you don't want shared by highlighting it then go to edit invert selection don't know if that will help.

If you want to share all folder but one here is the easiest (maybe not the most pretty way) to do this. From your C drive (or whatever) share that drive. Then do to the folder you do not want to share and SHARE it but put a $ at the end of the name. For instance.

C is shared as C_drive, while the windows folder is shared as windows$. The $ hides the shared folder from network neighborhood or net use commands. You can also password protect the hidden$ share.
