This has plenty to do with OpenBSD, the central server is OpenBSD and
getting it to play nice with windows has to do with it also.

    It is possible to not only deny permissions to a drive, but also to 
    completely hide the drive from the user interface. Hiding drives from 
    the interface can be done through group policies (either local policies 
    or via Active Directory). Take a look at Microsoft Knowledge Base 
    article Q231289: "Using Group Policy Objects to hide specified drives 
    in My Computer for Windows 2000".
    
    Since Windows administration is quite off-topic, if you need further 
    help please e-mail me off list. I haven't hidden drives from users 
    before, but i work with someone who administers Windows and does this 
    so it would be easy for me to ask more questions on how it is done.
