vfs_offline - Mark all files as offline

       The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
       by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.

Samba 4.22.3-Ubuntu-4.22.3+dfs                     07/21/2025                                     VFS_OFFLINE(8)

       This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.

       The vfs_offline module marks all files in the share as having the offline DOS attribute.

       Files with the offline DOS attribute are handled differently by the Windows SMB client, as well as by
       Windows Explorer. In particular, Windows Explorer does not read those files for the sole purpose of
       drawing a thumbnail, as it normally does. This can improve user experience with some remote file systems.

       Mark all files in a share as offline:

                   [remote]vfsobjects=offline

       vfs_offline - Mark all files as offline

       vfs objects = offline

       This man page is part of version 4.22.3-Ubuntu-4.22.3+dfsg-4ubuntu1 of the Samba suite.
