Hidden .wdmc directories created by mcserver and photodbmerger and the deletion of them

Thanks for the info! :smileyvery-happy:

A couple minor suggestions to save time:

To stop the services restarting, just remove their execution permissions. You can do this by SSHing in and executing the following commands:

chmod 644 /etc/init.d/wdmcserverd

chmod 644 /etc/init.d/wdphotodbmergerd

Instead of telling samba to display the index directories, just wipe them out through the command line. SSH in, cd to the root of the share you want to clean, and enter:

find . -name .nflc_data -exec rm -rf {} ;

find . -name .wdmc -exec rm -rf {} ;

find . -name .twonky -exec rm -rf {} ;

These commands will delete all files and directories in the current share named .nflc_data, .wdmc, and .twonky, respectively. Before you do this, you may also want to run the following to view the files and make sure there’s nothing that you want to keep:

find . -name .nflc_data

find . -name .wdmc

find . -name .twonky
