vfs_netatalk8
Hide .appledouble files from cifs clients
Usage
vfs objects
=
netatalk
Overview
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
The vfs_netatalk VFS module dynamically hides .AppleDouble files, preventing spurious errors on some CIFS clients. .AppleDouble files may be created by historic implementations of AFP (Apple Filing Protocol) on servers.
This module is stackable.
Examples
Hide .AppleDouble files on the [data] share:
[data] vfs objects = netatalk
Caveats
This module is largely historic and unlikely to be of use in modern networks since current Apple systems are able to mount CIFS shares natively.
Version
