[Samba]Hiding a Samba Server

Hi,

I've been trying to find a way to hide Samba servers so that they do not appear in Network Neighborhood.  It's a corporate requirement that our servers do not advertise themselves in this way.  I can hide the shares, and files that I want hidden, but I cannot find anything on hiding the entire server.  We can do this with our NT servers so that to map a share you have to know the full path to that share, it can't just be browsed too.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
