| 22 | One feature of the veto files parameter that it is important to be aware of is Samba's behaviour when
|
|---|
| 23 | trying to delete a directory. If a directory that is to be deleted contains nothing but veto files this
|
|---|
| 24 | deletion will <emphasis>fail</emphasis> unless you also set the <smbconfoption name="delete veto files"/>

| 29 | Setting this parameter will affect the performance of Samba, as it will be forced to check all files
|
|---|
| 30 | and directories for a match as they are scanned.
