Thank you Grevious,
I have been able to locate the "missing" shares in a two step approach.
I ran an app that was postred in a related forum topic and that abled me to view the shares that had been hidden or otherwise no longer displayed.
The share that was hidden was located under folders recorded under the old domain name
There were some other folders that had been created by my elder son, by copying folders up from his PC to the same level as his own share, which were no longer displayed. As these folders were off the root level and had not been created by Frontview, there were no CIFS properties to reset (at least that I could see)
I also used the steps you mention to reset the permissions of the formerly hidden share as well.
I have my all data again and that is the what I was hoping for.
I have some questions on setting the restricted access writes, but I will do some hunting for other posts before I ask them.
Thank you for your help.
