May 2, 201115 yr Hey guys, My Mac creates the files .AppleDB/ 2011-05-01 22:46 .AppleDesktop/ 2011-05-02 10:16 .AppleDouble/ on my shares... How can I automatically hide or delete them...
August 14, 201114 yr Did you get an answer for this Smitty? I'm wondering too as I did the thing on telnet about not creating hidden files.
September 8, 201114 yr Hi guys.. same problem.. but I'm having a bigger issue.. these files are preventing me from accessing the shares. I can turn off AFP, delete them and re-enable AFP and I can access the drive, but as soon as I connect, the files are recreated....... Anyone have a solution for this? whiteatom
September 8, 201114 yr Create the file /config/smb-extra.conf on your flash share (if it does not already exist) and add the following lines: map hidden = No map system = No hide files = /ntuser.*/.AppleDouble/.AppleDesktop/.AppleDB//Network Trash Folder/Temporary Items/TheFindByContentFolder/TheVolumeSettingsFolder/.DS_Store/Icon\r/ You'll still see the files if you telnet in and ls locally, but this will prevent them from showing up on your SMB exports.
