I hope this is an appropriate forum for Samba questions from new users. I have successfully configured Samba on my network which consists of a Fedora 2 box and three Windows machines. However, I can't seem to turn off the dot files. When I browse to the shared folder from a one of the Windows machines, which is my personal folder in /home, I can see all the './' and '.' files. In SWAT under the 'filename handling' section 'hide dot files' is set to 'yes'. Can someone tell me what I'm overlooking? -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA
Perhaps you have in XP hidden files and folders exposed. Claude Jones wrote:> I hope this is an appropriate forum for Samba questions from new > users.
