samba - Feb 2005 - desktop.ini file appearing in folders.

hi, i have the lastest stable samba running as a PDC in a home network
environment.

i get the file desktop.ini pop up, and in start menus, and in favourates as
well. I can manually delete them. but when i log onto another machine, it
reappears again.

is there anything i can do to fix this as it is annoying to some of the users in
the domain.

Thanks.

In your smb.conf file, in the [profiles] share, add the line: 
"hide files = /desktop.ini/

I believe you can add to smb.conf something like...

veto files = /desktop.ini/
