VFS_NETATALK(8) System Administration tools VFS_NETATALK(8)
NAME
vfs_netatalk - hide .AppleDouble files from CIFS clients
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = netatalk
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
The vfs_netatalk VFS module dynamically hides .AppleDouble files, preventing spurious errors on some CIFS clients. .AppleDouble files may
be created by historic implementations of AFP (Apple Filing Protocol) on servers.
This module is stackable.
EXAMPLES
Hide .AppleDouble files on the [data] share:
[data]
vfs objects = netatalk
CAVEATS
This module is largely historic and unlikely to be of use in modern networks since current Apple systems are able to mount CIFS shares
natively.
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.0.25 of the Samba suite.
