Hidden NFS root in windows

Sebastian_Antunez — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 09:54:11 GMT

Hello

Good morning everyone, a question is it possible in an nfs configured in ontap 9.11.1 to hide the root of the nfs, since in windows it always shows me /?

I need to be able to hide it, since for auditing it should not be visible.

Thanks for your help

when you create the cifs share you specify the share name

so if the vol is test, jp is /test the cifs share path it /test and make / non-browsable
