samba - Aug 2000 - [homes] vs [homes$]

Hi all. Is it possible to have a generic share like [homes] that hides
all user home dir shares by default by appending a "$" to them?
I'd
search the archives but they have not yet been tx'd. I realise there is
"browse vs nobrowse" but I specifically need to have end users map to
\\srv\user$ rather than \\srv\user.

I have archives going back to November.  They are searchable, but the
indexer keeps crashing and I haven't yet tracked down why, so I'm not
sure how up-to-date the indices are.

[%U$]
  path = /home/%U

%U means the authenticated username.  And no, this won't work if your
users don't have a regular home directory path like /home/%U.  Also,
you probably want to make sure you aren't in "security = share"
mode.
