Managing Folders
A folder is a subdirectory of a share. Folder names can be up to 31 characters,
and cannot contain any of the following characters \ / : * ? “ < > | # . %. This is a
good practice to follow in order to avoid incompatibilities between different
systems, for example, between Linux and older versions of Mac OS. The
administrator may want to create several folders so that the files in a share can be
organized. It is important to understand that all of the folders inherit permissions
of the share that they are under unless set otherwise.
