NAME

       vfs_offline - Mark all files as offline

SYNOPSIS

       vfs objects = offline

DESCRIPTION

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

       The vfs_offline module marks all files in the share as having the offline DOS attribute.

       Files with the offline DOS attribute are handled differently by the Windows SMB client, as
       well as by Windows Explorer. In particular, Windows Explorer does not read those files for
       the sole purpose of drawing a thumbnail, as it normally does. This can improve user
       experience with some remote file systems.

EXAMPLES

       Mark all files in a share as offline:

                   [remote]
                vfs objects = offline

VERSION

       This man page is part of version 4.17.7-Ubuntu of the Samba suite.
