Hello I set up Samba 3.0.28,1 on a FreeBSD 6.3 host. I'd like users _not_ to see the hidden dot files in directories, but "hide dot files" doesn't work, no matter whether I put it in [global] or [homes]: =====[global] workgroup = WORKGROUP netbios name = Samba hosts allow = 192.168.0. 127. log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 socket options = SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 hide dot files = yes [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No hide dot files = yes ===== Any idea why? Thank you.

Thank you. PS : I already posted this message through Gmane's gmane.network.samba.general, but it didn't make it. Is gmane.network.samba.general != samba@lists.samba.org?
