Daemonizer, if you try to create a mountpoint of another folder and share it, does it work?

This doesnt work for me… win 7 64, true crypt, when i try to share the resulting “mountpoint” folder win 7 tells me: “your folder cannot be shared”. Anyone know how to get past this?

Regards,

Lazy, I may need more info to try to answer your question. But if you are just trying to hide your mounted TC volume on and XP machine, the easiest way would probably be to use TweakUI. In TweakUI, you would go to My Computer and then Drives and uncheck the drive you want to hide.

Or if you use the same drive letter to mount each time, you could then use a registry hack to hide it: http://tinyurl.com/33yzl8a

hi, do you have any idea on how to do the opposite, i.e. restricting access the mounted volume?

here is my situation:

i use a truecrypt volume to store my data on USB for access on multiple machines. when i mount the volume, it becomes visible to other people on the machine. i tried to set NTFS permission, but then i need to have the files accessible from multiple machines not belonging to the same domain. any suggestion?
