[Samba] Cannot rename problem solved

I guess that would work if you want the users to have access to it.  We keep
the recycle bins for admin use only and don't share them back out to users.

I suppose the problems start to arise if someone with special rights to a
subfolder  (ACLs only I suppose) deletes some sensitive files and these
files get moved into the main share's recycle bin where they can be read by
all and sundry ?

I suppsoe it is install dependent - but allowing the situation to arise
whereby users cannot delete a file would be a real bummer.  Also, if it is
an app like Word/Excel/Staroffice using the file then you would not actually
be able to modify the files either because of the way it replaces the
original with the new version.

Thanks - do you think the default permissions on .recycle should
be 770 to allow group members to delete ?
