[Samba] a "hidden" setting for a samba server

[Joel Hammer]

What are you trying to do?
Hide this server from everyone or just a few?
Do you want the server accessible, even if it is hidden? That is, do you
want the shares mappable but the server not seen?
Do you want to change the name of the server to something else?
