I have an NT share on Windows server 2003, the NT share is configured with
everyone full control. The file permissions have been set on the folder side
allow a set of groups access.

We only want users to be able to access the files through a direct link
\\servername\foldername\objectname.txt. However, we don't want them to be
able to see a full list of filenames in the folder. Is there a security model
that can be utilized that allows them to actually open a direct link to a
file name (\\servername\folder\thisfile.txt) but will not show them a
complete listing of files.

If I set the folder with read permissions only, then the direct link does
not work. But if I set it so folder list is included then they can open the
direct link to file but also see all files.

Hi

For those who you want to just access the particular file, why not have
a batch file to run the file on startup?
