How-To: Adding custom samba settings to a share

[fdavid]

If you want to add custom samba settings you can use either UMC:

but if you want to use udm you might run into problems figuring out the correct syntax. Here’s how it goes:

udm shares/share modify --dn cn=test-share,cn=shares,$(ucr get ldap/base) --append sambaCustomSettings="recycle:repository RecycleBin"

You can check the result afterwards:

$ udm shares/share list | grep -i custom
sambaCustomSettings: recycle:repository = RecycleBin

Notice the correct syntax of sambaCustomSettings:

sambaCustomSettings="recycle:repository RecycleBin"
