Description Kelly Price 2008-10-17 22:00:05 UTC

Request for an enhancement, for I have two servers, one running Samba, one running NetATalk.  A user "tygris" is on both of them.

A MacOS X Leopard client confuses the two "tygris" shares, and defaults to the Samba share.

I'd like to have an option of overriding the share name for all homes, allowing for a prefix or postfix around the username:

   home share name = "redwolf-%S"

Default is "%S" or old behavior.  When defined in this example, home shares would be named "redwolf-tygris" for user "tygris".
