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

Actually, Windows is ignorant of the NAS recycle bin, so even things deleted where you tell it not to go to recycle bin will go there on the NAS. You also cannot "empty the recycle bin" in standard Windows fashion. You have to go into the bin and delete the files. Note that also applies to things deleted by your virus checker, which can be a good thing for false virus ID's but bad for real infected files.
