VFS_STREAMS_DEPOT(8)	   System Administration tools	    VFS_STREAMS_DEPOT(8)

NAME
     vfs_streams_depot	- EXPERIMENTAL module to store alternate data streams in
     a central directory.

SYNOPSIS
     vfs objects = streams_depot

DESCRIPTION
     This EXPERIMENTAL VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.

     The vfs_streams_depot enables storing of NTFS alternate data streams in the
     file system. As a normal posix file system does not support the concept  of
     multiple data streams per file, the streams_depot module stores the data in
     files in a separate directory.

OPTIONS
     streams_depot:directory = PATH
	 Path  of  the	directory  where  the  alternate  data streams should be
	 stored. Defaults to the sharepath/.streams.

     streams_depot:delete_lost = [ yes | no ]
	 In the case of an already existing data streams directory for	a  newly
	 created  file the streams directory will be renamed to "lost-%lu", ran-
	 dom(). With this option lost stream directories will be removed instead
	 of renamed.

		*   no(default) - rename lost streams to "lost-%lu", random().

		*   yes - remove lost streams.

EXAMPLES
		 [share]
	      vfs objects = streams_depot
