This function allows you to change the SMB protocol settings for this share. To limit access to read-only, make sure the Read-only box is checked. Uncheck the Visible box to hide the share from the browse list. Select Guest to allow anonymous access to the share. Select Users with password to enforce user authentication.
Handling large directories
This option allows you to significantly speed up file listing. The prerequisite is to convert all file and directory names to lower or upper case exclusively. Please select your preferred choice below. Note You will need to convert your existing file and directory names to lower or upper case before selecting this option, as otherwise they will become inaccessible. Note Please note that due to case sensitivity issues, the operations above may have a negative impact on Unix-like systems. Please prepare accordingly beforehand. Windows is not affected.
Inherit owner
The ownership of new files and directories is normally governed by effective uid of the connected user. If this option is checked, the ownership for new files and directories is taken from the ownership of the parent directory. Common scenarios where this behavior is useful is in implementing drop-boxes where users can create and edit files but not delete them.
Inherit ACL's
This option can be used to ensure that if default acls exist on parent directories, they are always honored when creating a new file or subdirectory in these parent directories if the option is checked.
Inherit permissions If this option is checked, new directories inherit the mode of the parent directory and new files inherit their read/write permissions from the parent directory. This option can be particularly useful on large systems with many users to allow a single [homes] share to be used flexibly by each user.
Map ACL inherit
This option controls whether SAMBA will attempt to map the 'inherit' and 'protected' access control entry flags stored in Windows ACLs into an extended attribute. This option allows the Windows ACL editor to correctly use inheritance with the Samba POSIX ACL mapping code. Locking This option controls whether or not locking will be performed by the server in response to lock requests from the client. Note Be careful about disabling locking as lack of locking may result in data corruption. You should never need to disable this option.
