Hi Ian,

Does this apply to *all* VFS objects with Samba 4.19.6 ?

I have a server configured with several VFS objects to provide a share
for some Apple iOS/macOS clients.  In the config file I have:

     /etc/samba/smb.conf
         . . .
         vfs objects = catia fruit streams_xattr xattr_tdb

...after this I configure some of the VFS objects (ie: fruit: etc.).

I had *thought* this was being honoured by Samba as I did not seeing any
error output regarding the VFS objects ... but has Samba been silently
ignoring them ?

Thanks,

- J
