![]() I am a bit surprised that no one here mentioned the poor performance that is forced to come into our apple world when using smb instead of afp.įor example: I have a simple folder with a subfolder that contains two folders and a photos library. I left AFP enabled for my Time Machine share, but that won't be necessary anymore after upgrading to OMV 5 as I understood. I also stopped and disabled nmbd just to be sure, since I'm not sure if disable netbios = yes is accepted: Socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAYįruit:wipe_intentionally_left_blank_rfork = yes I disabled "Browsable" under the SMB/CIFS Home Directory settings and added the following to the Advanced Settings text field part (in bold): I've got the icon part sorted by adding an extra service section to /usr/share/openmediavault/mkconf/avahiservices.d/smb (to make it stick after config updates):Īnd then modifying the SMB/CIFS service discovery item in the OMV 4 webUI under Network -> Service Discovery to reflect the same name as the AFP name (Home Server in my case). Somehow Apple managed to change this behavior if you share via SMB on a Mac (SMB shares look the same as when using AFP and no extra computer icon), does somebody know how to mimic this behavior? That would only leave the nice icons to be desired. It allows me to set a nice icon (using the advanced settings) in the finder and only shows just one icon in the finder instead of a blue screen computer icon next to all the separate shares (see screenshots). I'm a Mac user too and really would like to stay using the AFP plugin. I would guess most users don't put all those special characters in filenames or have super long filenames.įeel free to port the plugin to OMV 5.x. You can't even use afp on apfs formatted volumes. afp is deprecated (yes, I know you can still use it but you should transitioning off it). If you copy those files over smb, you will lose those informations and the file will be around 0KB in size!!! ![]() Some programs and files like "oldstyle" fonts still uses the advantages of data- and programforks. If you want to hide file towards SMB, just use any special character and it will be invisible!!! SMB will not use those characters and in SMB and CIFS you are restricted in 256 characters where the description of the filepath must be included in counting! AFP is preferred and recommended by everyone who ever used MacOS and OSX, cause you can and you will use special characters like " : / \ '"" ? * # " in filenames!
