[Samba] str[fp]time - what is this and can I add padding? smb.conf

[Tom Jermy]

I'm wanting to extend vfs shadow_copy2 in samba a little and want to add
additional information to the snapshot name - it's parsed by str[fp]time with
the format:

 %Y%m%d-%H%M%S

I want to add a 6 arbitrary characters to the beginning or end of this and
still have it parsed correctly.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
