This gives the same effect as the Recycle Bin on Windows computers\&. .PP The Recycle Bin will not appear in Windows Explorer views of the network file system (share) nor on any mapped drive\&. Instead, a directory called \&.recycle will be automatically created when the first file is deleted and recycle:repository is not configured\&. If recycle:repository is configured, the name of the created directory depends on recycle:repository\&. Users can recover files from the recycle bin\&. If the recycle:keeptree option has been specified, deleted files will be found in a path identical with that from which the file was deleted\&. .PP This module is stackable\&. .SH "OPTIONS" .PP recycle:repository = PATH .RS 4 Path of the directory where deleted files should be moved\&. .sp If this option is not set, the default path \&.recycle is used\&. .RE .PP recycle:directory_mode = MODE .RS 4 Set MODE to the octal mode the recycle repository should be created with\&. The recycle repository will be created when first file is deleted\&. If recycle:subdir_mode is not set, MODE also applies to subdirectories\&. .sp If this option is not set, the default mode 0700 is used\&. .RE .PP recycle:subdir_mode = MODE .RS 4 Set MODE to the octal mode with which sub directories of the recycle repository should be created\&. .sp If this option is not set, subdirectories will be created with the mode from recycle:directory_mode\&. .RE .PP recycle:keeptree = BOOL .RS 4 Specifies whether the directory structure should be preserved or whether the files in a directory that is being deleted should be kept separately in the repository\&. .RE .PP recycle:versions = BOOL .RS 4 If this option is True, two files with the same name that are deleted will both be kept in the repository\&. Newer deleted versions of a file will be called "Copy #x of filename"\&. .RE .PP recycle:touch = BOOL .RS 4 Specifies whether a file\'s access date should be updated when the file is moved to the repository\&. .RE .PP recycle:touch_mtime = BOOL .RS 4 Specifies whether a file\'s last modified date should be updated when the file is moved to the repository\&. .RE .PP recycle:minsize = BYTES .RS 4 Files that are smaller than the number of bytes specified by this parameter will not be put into the repository\&. .RE .PP recycle:maxsize = BYTES .RS 4 Files that are larger than the number of bytes specified by this parameter will not be put into the repository\&. .RE .PP recycle:exclude = LIST .RS 4 List of files that should not be put into the repository when deleted, but deleted in the normal way\&. Wildcards such as * and ? are supported\&. .RE .PP recycle:exclude_dir = LIST .RS 4 List of directories whose files should not be put into the repository when deleted, but deleted in the normal way\&. Wildcards such as * and ? are supported\&. .RE .PP recycle:noversions = LIST .RS 4 Specifies a list of paths (wildcards such as * and ? are supported) for which no versioning should be used\&. Only useful when recycle:versions is enabled\&. .RE .SH "EXAMPLES" .PP Move files "deleted" on \fIshare\fR to \fI/data/share/\&.recycle\fR instead of deleting them: .sp .if n \{\ .RS 4 .\} .nf \fI[share]\fR \m[blue]\fBpath = /data/share\fR\m[] \m[blue]\fBvfs objects = recycle\fR\m[] \m[blue]\fBrecycle:repository = \&.recycle\fR\m[] \m[blue]\fBrecycle:keeptree = yes\fR\m[] \m[blue]\fBrecycle:versions = yes\fR\m[] .fi .if n \{\ .RE .\} .SH "VERSION" .PP This man page is correct for version 3\&.0\&.25 of the Samba suite\&. .SH "AUTHOR" .PP The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell\&. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed\&.
