NAME

6       vfs_netatalk - hide .AppleDouble files from CIFS clients
7

SYNOPSIS

9       vfs objects = netatalk
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
13
14       The  vfs_netatalk VFS module dynamically hides .AppleDouble files, pre‐
15       venting spurious errors on some CIFS clients. .AppleDouble files may be
16       created  by  historic implementations of AFP (Apple Filing Protocol) on
17       servers.
18
19       This module is stackable.
20

EXAMPLES

22       Hide .AppleDouble files on the [data] share:

24
25               [data]
26            vfs objects = netatalk

CAVEATS

30       This module is largely historic and unlikely to be  of  use  in  modern
31       networks  since  current  Apple  systems  are able to mount CIFS shares
32       natively.
