April 23, 20206 yr I changed one SMB share visibility from "yes (hidden)" to "yes". I think this causes a restart of the SMB service because all my active connections were killed and a running upload was interrupted. I think a dialog should warn before a setting is saved and the SMB service is restarted. Maybe it contains something like "John is writing with x MB/s to disk Y. Are you sure to restart the SMB service? Data lost possible bla bla"
April 24, 20206 yr Community Expert There is a separate request raised to tell the Samba service to read its new configuration without it going through a full restart (which on doing some googling seems to be a feature supported by Samba). I think that would be a better solution, but if for any reason it is decided that is not possible then a warning would be nice.
