FUSESMB.CONF(5) 						File Formats Manual						   FUSESMB.CONF(5)

NAME

       fusesmb.conf - the configuration file for fusesmb

FILE FORMAT

       The file consists of sections and parameters. A section begins with the name of the section in square brackets and continues until the next
       section begins. Sections contain parameters of the form: name = value.

       The file is line-based - that is, each newline-terminated line represents either a comment, a section name or a parameter.

       Section and parameter names are not case sensitive.

       Only the first equals sign in a parameter is significant. Whitespace before or after the first equals sign is discarded.  Leading, trailing
       and  internal whitespace in section and parameter names is irrelevant. Leading and  trailing  whitespace in a parameter value is discarded.
       Internal whitespace within a parameter value is retained verbatim.

       Any  line beginning with a semicolon (``;'') or a hash (``#'') character is ignored, as are lines containing only whitespace.

SPECIAL SECTIONS

       fusesmb.conf can contain the following sections:

       The [global] section
	      Section for global parameters.

       The [ignore] section
	      Section for specifying servers and/or workgroups that should not be listed.

       The [/SERVER] section
	      Section for server-specific settings. The section name should start with a slash ``/'' and not end with a slash.

       The [/SERVER/SHARE]
	      Section for share-specific settings. The section name should start with a slash followed by the server name followed by a slash end-
	      ing on the share name. It should not end with a slash.

EXPLANATION OF EACH PARAMETER

       This chapter explains each possible option. The section names - specified between parentheses after each option - shows the applicable sec-
       tions for this option. For example: ( [global] ) specifies that this option is only possible for the section [global].

       ignore ( [/SERVER] )
	      Ignore this server. Possible values are: true, false, 1 and 0.

	      Example: ignore = true

       interval ( [global] )
	      Interval for scanning the network for shares. Value is a number that specifies the network scanning  interval  in  minutes.  If  the
	      value is smaller or equal to zero the network is not scanned.

	      Example: interval = 20

       password ( [global], [/SERVER], [/SERVER/SHARE] )
	      Password. Value is string containing the password.

	      Example: password = secret

       servers ( [ignore] )
	      Servers to ignore. Value is each server to ignore separated by a comma.

	      Example: servers = SERVER1, SERVER2, SERVER3

       showhiddenshares ( [global], [/SERVER] )
	      Show hidden shares. Possible values are: true, false, 1 and 0.

	      Example: showhiddenshares = false

       timeout ( [global] )
	      Connection timeout in seconds. A server after this timeout is considered offline. Values smaller than 2 seconds are ignored.

	      Example: timeout = 10

       username ( [global], [/SERVER], [/SERVER/SHARE] )
	      Username. Value is string containing the username.

	      Example: username = johndoe

       workgroups ( [ignore] )
	      Workgroups to ignore. Value is each workgroup to ignore separated by a comma.

	      Example: workgroups = WORKGROUP1, WORKGROUP2

EXAMPLE

       ; Global settings
       [global]

       ; Default username and password
       username=user
       password=totallysecret

       ; List hidden shares
       showhiddenshares=true

       ; Connection timeout in seconds
       timeout = 10

       ;Interval for updating new shares in minutes
       interval = 10

       ; Section for servers and/or workgroups to ignore
       [ignore]
       servers=SERVER,SERVER2,SERVER3
       workgroups=WORKGROUP,WG2

       ; Share-specific settings
       [/SERVER/SHARE]
       username=john
       password=doe

       ; Server-specific settings
       [/SERVER]
       username=jane
