Different Samba Share Names for the same directory

  • Hi, for backup purposes (I need to upload only image files), I would like to export my picture folder without video files.

    Some time ago I achieved this via duplicating my picture share in samba and veto files option to exclude extensions related to video files.

    With OMV6 though it seems to me that I can't give a different name to a share and this prevent me to export the same directory with different names and different options.

    I tried to create a new Storage -> shared folder named PicturesOnly that has the same directory containing my pictures but OMV complains that you cant have two different shared folders on the same directory.

    So, Is there a way to achieve this? I could edit smb.conf by hand but it will be overwritten.

  • I'd open an issue on GitHub to get developer attention.

    Issue will need several screenshots to show issue clearly!
