Just started with Samba a few weeks ago so am still a newbie. Am serving a single W-95 client reasonably well - it allows users to log on using their unix id and passwd, and they can all browse their unix home directories. However .... I can't seem to get the "hide dotfiles" directive to work. Nor the "hide files"! Also, If a user on W-95 saves a file to unix called, say, "Joe Smith.doc", I want it to stay as "Joe Smith.doc" , not be saved as "joe smith.doc" . (I assume there is nothing wrong with wanting this) These...

I looked through the wiki and the archives, but couldn't find an answer to this question. We use a webmail product that uses three dummy mbox dotfiles for storing configuration and temporary info. I'm trying to find a way to have dovecot's indexing ignore all dotfiles, and so far have had no luck (other than, of course, coding it in myself). Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks. -Brian Hayden

I've been playing around a little bit with the "veto files" option for the [homes] shares we have on our Samba servers (2.2.1a & 2.2.3a). I've discovered that: veto files = /.*/ works marvelously for not letting the users muck with their .dotfiles, which is exactly what we want, however, I've also discovered that it also clobbers the special directory entries "." and "..", which causes some programs to fail when reading the directory of the share. I thought, at first, that the "veto files" option took shell...

dir(all=TRUE) returns the file names "." and ".." while dir(recursive=TRUE, all=TRUE, include.dirs=TRUE) does not. I always filter out the "." and ".." entries and was wondering if anyone would mind if dir(all=TRUE) just omitted them? It might make recursive file operations like cleaning out a directory safer, as unlink(recursive=TRUE, dir(all=TRUE,

Hi Aki, Oops; I did not think carefully enough about your instructions.

As far as I can tell, the "replace" parameter is all or nothing. What I am looking for is something like the exec/onlyif parameter that I can use to conditionally replace a file.

I have "hide dot files" on, but I have noticed that while files with a single dot are hidden, files with multiple dots are not: ".foo" - hidden "...foo" - not hidden Is this by design? *nix certainly hide such files by default... -- Barry -- http://barrkel.blogspot.com/

Hi, I've some dot-files in the Maildir/ folder. These files appear in the Mailbox listing, but of course they can't be accessed. In the previous dovecot versions these files were hidden. Matthias

Hello.. I'm attempting to copy/sync a development directory on my laptop to our web server, and for some reason dot-files are being copied but not deleted. Command line: rsync -rvva --delete-after -e ssh ./ server.com:/var/www/html/project/ The symptom is that I've got files like '.Makefile.swp' and '.hidden.php.swp' on the server (vi temp files) even after deleting them

Hi All, I have been using rsync to backup to a central server with a 7 day incremental script on 2 Redhat boxen. #!/bin/sh PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin DAY=`date +%A` export PATH DAY [ -d /root/emptydir ] || mkdir /root/emptydir rsync --rsh=/usr/bin/ssh --delete -a /root/emptydir/ CENTRAL_SERVER_IP:/backup2/BACKED_UP_SERVER_FQDN/$DAY rmdir /root/emptydir rsync --delete

Many people have wondered what my rsync syntax was - [as root]: rsync -av /path/to/source me at remote-host:/path/to/dest I'll be adjusting it to adapt to perform incrementals, probably with --update. So, just need to learn why some of the .dotfiles, and other unknown files (unless I ran a diff) didn't successfully copy over. Thanks.
