NAME
vfs_unityed_media - Allow multiple Avid clients to share a network
drive.
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = unityed_media
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
Unityed Media is related with Media Harmony VFS, the main difference
between Unityed Media and Media Harmony is that Unityed Media doesn't
need manual refreshing of media directories. Unityed Media handles your
media files in a similar way to the way Unity, ISIS, EditShare or
another dedicated solution does. Without client-side application and on
hardware of your choice.
This module is stackable.
CONFIGURATION
If Mac and Windows Avid clients will be accessing the same folder, they
should be given separate share definitions, with hidden Mac files
vetoed on the Windows share. See EXAMPLES.
OPTIONS
unityed_media:clientid = user | hostname | ip
Controls what client related identifier is appended to user
specific paths:
o user (default) - use the username.
o hostname - use the hostname. Note this will not work
with OS X clients as these always send a generic string
("workstation") to the server..
o ip - use the client's IP address. NOTE: this is untested
and may not work at all.
EXAMPLES
Enable unityed_media for Mac and Windows clients:
[avid_mac]
path = /avid
vfs objects = unityed_media
[avid_win]
path = /avid
vfs objects = unityed_media
veto files = /.DS_Store/._@/.Trash@/.Spotlight@/.hidden/.hotfiles@/.vol/
delete veto files = yes
