mdadm with 4tb HDDs + kernel tweaks for improved speeds pt3 (samba config)

So it's all done right?

Well I thought I'd share this lil snippet.

When deleting a file on a network share e.g. Samba shares delete, deletes permanently. It doesn't move it to a 'trash can' or 'recycle' bin.

To enable undelete, use this tweak under your samba share declaration:

[share] 
vfs object = recycle
        recycle:repository = .deleted/%U
        recycle:keeptree = Yes
        recycle:touch = Yes
        recycle:versions = Yes
        recycle:maxsixe = 0
        recycle:exclude = *.tmp
        recycle:exclude_dir = /tmp
        recycle:noversions = *.doc

Where the file will be moed to the .deleted folder under your username.
