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

Yes JMehring you are right I did find the samba directory in "/etc/frontview/samba".
I went ahead created addons.conf file and edited it via VI to add the recycle bin config.
I tested it and the recycle bin is there now and works! Thank you so much for all your help!
Just one question though.
When you delete items from the NAS, in order for them to go to the recycle bin can they only be deleted via the readynas web interface? When I delete items via windows explorer on the NAS it always asks to permanently delete (thus not going to the recycle bin), but when I delete the files via the readynas web interface when browsing to the shares the recycle bin works.
Is there a way to have files deleted via windows on the NAS go to the recycle bin setup?
