Accounts database

Only records with type ibay.

Properties:

  • SmbStatus if enabled, activates ibay sharing through SMB protocol
  • SmbProfileType select the profile template to apply to the share (optional).
    The template path must be placed into /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/smb.conf/ and prefixed by ibay-. Eg: default profile is located at /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/smb.conf/ibay-default.
  • SmbRecycleBinStatus: enable or disable the recycle bin; when a file is deleted it is moved inside the recycle bin.
  • SmbShareBrowseable: controls the visibility of the shared folder, default is enabled.

   AclWrite=domadmins,admin
   Description=test
   GroupAccess=rw
   OtherAccess=r
   OwningGroup=locals
   SmbGuestAccessType=none
   SmbRecycleBinStatus=disabled
   SmbShareBrowseable=enabled
   SmbStatus=enabled

Shared folder profile

Note

Shared folder profile is not related to "Roaming profiles"!

Ibays serve different purposes and smb.conf provides a lot of parameters to configure a Samba share. It's difficult to find a combination of parameters that can fit all the possible requirements. Thus an ibay configuration adheres to a profile.

An ibay profile is a smb.conf sub-template that expands a cohesive set of share parameters. Each ibay has SmbProfileType prop that selects the template to apply to the ibay. The template path must be placed into /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/smb.conf/ and prefixed by ibay-. Eg: default profile is located at /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/smb.conf/ibay-default.

The default profile is applied if the given custom profile is not found.
