Topic: Add fragment to /etc/samba/smb.conf

[steever]

Hi Guys:

I'd like to add the line

hide files = /desktop.ini/ntuser.ini/NTUSER.*/

to the [profiles] share in /etc/samba/smb.conf to stop those annoying instances of desktop.ini popping up.

Can anybody help me do this through the templating system?

Thanks in advance.

Steve

Copy the file

    /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/smb.conf/61Profilesshare

to

    /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/smb.conf/61Profilesshare
 

Code: [Select]


mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/smb.conf/
cp /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/smb.conf/61Profilesshare  /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/smb.conf


edit the file and add the line you want

Then expand the template

Code: [Select]


/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/smb.conf


Then it should all be done..

Edit the file:

/etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/smb.conf/61Profilesshare

You'll find that towards to end it looks like the [Profiles] section you want to add your entry to.

Then execute:

/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/smb.conf

and when you check /etc/smb.conf will now have the modification you made.

Cheers,

Marco

I've been looking for a way to do just this, so thanks for sharing with the community.
With your help and the original poster's help we can eliminate this sort of unwanted stuff.
Up to now I've been individually deleting the .ini file in the user's windows startup directory.

Up to now I've been individually deleting the .ini file in the user's windows startup directory.

And if users would have reported this in the bugtracker the devs might have implemented this already or in the future. I took the liberty of reporting it as a bug 4082.
