Remark:

The Access Based Enumeration is filters shared folders visible to a user based on that individual user's access rights, preventing the display of folders or other shared resources that the user does not have rights to access. ABE can be accessed via graphical user interface (GUI), command-line executable tool, and a robust advanced programming interface (API).

It start from Windows Server 2003 SP1 support this feature.
