No, not anal at all. I do about four backups a night. I guess I am confused about your server. Just asking. Not criticizing. Probably done enough of that on here already.
I guess what kind of server do you have? Sure, servers can be an application server, but the main idea of a lot of servers is to be a file server. I am not understanding how sharing folders from a server to users affects the server. We use permissions to keep users out of folders, but you would have the same problem with the folder on the workstation. In fact, way less security.
I am completely confused.
