<samba:parameter name="strict rename"
context="S"
type="boolean"
xmlns:samba="http://www.samba.org/samba/DTD/samba-doc">
<description>
<para>By default a Windows SMB server prevents directory
renames when there are open file or directory handles below
it in the filesystem hierarchy. Historically Samba has always
allowed this as POSIX filesystem semantics require it.</para>
<para>This boolean parameter allows Samba to match the Windows
behavior. Setting this to "yes" is a very expensive change,
as it forces Samba to travers the entire open file handle
database on every directory rename request. In a clustered
Samba system the cost is even greater than the non-clustered
case.</para>
<para>When set to "no" smbd only checks the local process
the client is attached to for open files below a directory
being renamed, instead of checking for open files across all
smbd processes.</para>
<para>Because of the expense in fully searching the database,
the default is "no", and it is recommended to be left that way
unless a specific Windows application requires it to be changed.</para>
<para>If the client has requested UNIX extensions (POSIX
pathnames) then renames are always allowed and this parameter
has no effect.</para>
