Can 'Recycle Bin' be enabled for CIFS and OS 6.1.2 on a 314?
The older 4.x version of the OS allowed a Recycle Bin when using CIFS. Is this possible on the new OS 6.1.2? I noticed a recycle.conf file in '/data/._share/media' containing: 25000,0

Now you need to reload the config file. The only way I could figure out how to do this was go to the frontview web interface -> Shares and edit one of your current shares changing something so when you press OK, it will reload config file (I just kept toggling ftp on and off when testing).
Then, just run:
It should list all your shares and show the recycle: parameters for the sections you wanted.
Note, I use the name 'Recycle Bin', but you could choose another like '.trash'
