While working on my existing member file server smb.conf config file I
found an entry for "veto files" like the following:
veto files = /.bash_logout/.bash_profile/.bash_history/.bashrc/
The "man smb.conf" entry says:
veto files (S)
This is a list of files and directories that are neither
visible
nor accessible. Each entry in the list must be separated by a
'/',
which allows spaces to be included in the entry. '*' and '?'
can be
used to specify multiple files or directories as in DOS
wildcards.
Each entry must be a unix path, not a DOS path and must not
include
the unix directory separator '/'.
..... snipped for brevity .....
Am I reading a contradiction?
First paragraph says "Each entry in the list must be separated by a '/',
which allows spaces to be included in the entry."
And then the next paragraph says: ". . . . must not include the unix
directory separator '/'."
What? Can anyone explain?
