Hi there, we had some problems with that issue, i know it is covered and i
solved it with veto file = /*ktop.ini/ etc...
But now i'm thinking about it again, it's because Windows XP saves some
metainformation in some hidden files, one of them is desktop.ini, which is
very annoying because notepad is opened on every user session, but, there is
another file, thumbs.db, it becomes visible on remote shares and roaming
profiles.
My question is: it is possible to mantain the functionallity of those files
while make them hidden? Maybe with hide files?
If I use hide files instead of veto files for desktop.ini will dissapear the
problem of the notepad pop up?
I'm going to make another Samba server for testing those things but I'm short
of time now so if someone know the answer it would help a lot. :)
Thanks and excuse my english!!
