I should probably pick up a Synology box for reference… but could you explain the recycle bin feature in detail?

Of course, what I meant by recycle bin is that on Synology boxes, ASUSTOR etc you can choose the following option. When one of your NAS clients deletes a file from the share it automatically goes to a folder called recycle Instead of being permanently deleted. This way the administrator that has only access to this folder can retrieve files from there.

Regards

Hi @davioxx & @suman,
recycle bin feature is a well documented samba option - samba manpages , also available via web ui on Sinology, freenas/nas44free, etc etc etc

@davioxx you can have it directly editing your samba custom params on Rockstor web ui

Do you think this could be a desired feature??
Desired = opening new issue and coding a user friendly recycle bin configurator inside Rockstor web ui :wink:

Well at least for myself is a desired features as I have multiple users in my house and sometimes they accidentally delete files, I also use snapshots but that’s a different approach and is not easy for my users to review them.
