Request for samba share, restrict certain folders

[Steven-park]

Describe the issue you are experiencing

I am unable to hide/restrict certain folders as I wish to expose the media folder only for media straming, but would be safer to restrict access to the other folders for Users. This could help with a bit of unwanted or accidental tampering of the other files such as those in the config folder
