Hey, I am going to help host a LAN; however, the last time we did this it turned into half the people showing up to share every file imagined. I would rather not have the bandwidth go to this file sharing. Is there any way I can disable viewing workgroups from a central location, either a router or a computer?

Unfortunately, the only way is to turn off File and Printer sharing on each computer.
