How To Hide Recycle Bin
Hello, I'd like to know how to hide the Recycle bin folder from my explorer view. I am using an Mac, via AFP and it's really annoying to have to see the recycle bin folder. Would appreciate any...

Old thread, but just figured I wanted to post that the following worked for me (add to /etc/samba/smb.conf under [global] section):
I.e. similar to what super-poussin suggested, but without the * in the end (that hid all the files).
Just remember to restart samba afterwards (/etc/init.d/samba restart)
hide files = /Recycle Bin/
veto files = /Recycle Bin/
