Hello,
I'm little confused about the recycle bin handling of SMB shares.
SMB shares are configured with recycle bin usage. The client is a Linux Mint 19 PC and has mounted the SMB shares.
There's a .recycle folder in a SMB share. This is the recycle bin of FreeNAS. And there is also a .Trash-1026 folder, the recycle bin of my Linux User.
If I delete a file on the share it is moved to .Trash-1026.
I want to purge this trash folder. Right click context menu does not show "empty recycle bin", also not on .recycle. So I hit del on .Trash-1026. I get the notice that the folder will be deleted permanently. After that I can find .Trash-1026 in .recycle. OK, let's delete with del .recycle. No notice but .Trash-1026 is created again and the .recycle folder is in that. This is an endless loop. I cannot delete my file permanently
I have no idea where the problem is. How can I fix this behaviour? How can I set up one trash folder for all users? It's little strange and I'm confused :p
