veto files(S)This is a list of files and directories that
are neither visible nor accessible. Each entry in the list must
be separated by a '/', which allows spaces to be included
in the entry. '*' and '?' can be used to specify multiple files
or directories as in DOS wildcards.Each entry must be a unix path, not a DOS path and
must not include the unix directory
separator '/'.Note that the case sensitive option
is applicable in vetoing files.One feature of the veto files parameter that it
is important to be aware of is Samba's behaviour when
trying to delete a directory. If a directory that is
to be deleted contains nothing but veto files this
deletion will fail unless you also set
the delete veto files parameter to
yes.Setting this parameter will affect the performance
of Samba, as it will be forced to check all files and directories
for a match as they are scanned.See also hide files
and
case sensitive.Default: No files or directories are vetoed.
Examples:
; Veto any files containing the word Security,
; any ending in .tmp, and any directory containing the
; word root.
veto files = /*Security*/*.tmp/*root*/
; Veto the Apple specific files that a NetAtalk server
; creates.
veto files = /.AppleDouble/.bin/.AppleDesktop/Network Trash Folder/
