Show Dot Files to SMB Client
You can enable or disable this setting for each SMB share. By default, the setting is enabled, which means les with names that start
with a dot character are shown to SMB clients. When disabled, les that start with a dot are shown with a hidden ag set to SMB
clients of all versions (SMB, SMB2) that access the specic share. This setting applies to all les and folders in the system,
regardless of the creation origin.
