[Samba] Can I limit my browsing of share between clients?

[Necos Secon]

Well, as part of SMB, I believe the broadcasting of shares is limited to the local workgroup. However, what you could do is, make the share not browseable, use hosts allow, and add the share as a network drive in the logon scripts. This is what I do at my job (without the hosts allow).
