Avoid Finder problems with mount points
Could one of you explain why one cannot simply login on to the windwos share once, and use the 'Add to keychain' option (on the user/password dialog) to save the credentials? After that, opening the share will not require any passwords (also applies if you have a shortcut to a deep folder within the share)
veto files doesn't work?
I can't this option to work on my machine. I put it under the default heading in the conf file. Does it need to go somewhere special to work propperly? This would be fantastic if it worked!
veto files works like this...
Yes veto files does work it just doesn't quite do what was stated earlier. It doesn't prevent the Finder from creating the annoying .DS_Store file but instead hides it and restricts access to it from users accessing your Mac SMB shares. So these files would not be listed on a Windows machine connecting to your Mac.
veto files works like this...
You Want .DS.Store files written since they are what
represent the DeskTop file on the Server (ie: Icons and File Names,
Location of the Icons, View Options, etc.). You also need ._File-
Name
files there since they are your Macintosh Resource Fork contents for file
File-Name. The problem is that the .DS.Store and ._File-Name files are
Not being set as Windows "Hide" files so they are "seen" by
Windows users.
