This is driving me crazy, and I can't figure it out or find info on it. It seems like in Server 8 there was a way to hide a database from showing up in the Open Remote list. You could still host the database, but it wasn't listed to users.

How do I do it with 9?

There's a server setting under the Security tab:

"List only the databases each user is authorized to access"

There's also a checkbox under Sharing when you open the file with FileMaker Pro (not server): "Don't display in Open Remote File dialog"

This is true in FileMaker 9. Do you know how to hide the database from users in FileMaker 8?

Same way, and it's the same for FileMaker Pro 7 and FileMaker Server 7.
