what clients? what servers? and what does "Invisible" mean?

I mean do you want to make a samba share non-browseable to windows users 
(1), or are you afraid linux users might see a windows share despite 
calling it "COMMON$" so it's hidden to windows browsers (2)?

If your concern is (1) then you just need to add "browseable = no" to the 
share definition. If your concern is (2), then you need to switch from NT 
to samba, so you get a (1)-type configuration...

Cheers
