vfs_streams_depot
VFS_STREAMS_DEPOT(8) System Administration tools VFS_STREAMS_DEPOT(8)
NAME
vfs_streams_depot - EXPERIMENTAL module to store alternate data streams in a central directory.
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = streams_depot
DESCRIPTION
This EXPERIMENTAL VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
The vfs_streams_depot enables storing of NTFS alternate data streams in the file system. As a normal posix file system does not support the
concept of multiple data streams per file, the streams_depot module stores the data in files in a separate directory.
OPTIONS
streams_depot:directory = PATH
Path of the directory where the alternate data streams should be stored. Defaults to the sharepath/.streams.
streams_depot:delete_lost = [ yes | no ]
In the case of an already existing data streams directory for a newly created file the streams directory will be renamed to "lost-%lu",
random(). With this option lost stream directories will be removed instead of renamed.
o no(default) - rename lost streams to "lost-%lu", random().
o yes - remove lost streams.
EXAMPLES
