Is it possible change the recycle bin name?

Nope, as far as I know the name is hard-coded.
I could think of different options:

• a template-custom of /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/samba/smb.conf/ibay-default/01vfs_recycle.
• a template-custom fragment which sets only a custom value for the repository key of $ibay_vfs->{recycle} hash (or whatever is called in Perl).
• a custom ibay profile (see docs).

If second option is plausible, I think it would be easier and safer (regarding updates) than option 1.

Recycle Bin autodelete policy: Is it possible to delete the recycle bin after N days? ( I can also managed by a script, but it will be useful have it from the GUI ).

It was requested long ago but, if I’m not mistaken, it was not implemented. A cron job or scripted option could be something like:

Network Recycle bin on NS 7

You can use shell script #!/bin/sh find /var/lib/nethserver/ibay//Recycle -mindepth 1 -atime +30 -print0 | xargs -0r rm -rfv deletes all in Recycle Bin older than 30 days. Directly after Recycle is one star without empty space because it does not find Recycle Bin

Script for automatic trash dir cleanup:

#!/bin/bash

# cleanup recycle dir:
# delete all files with last access time
# older than a specific number of days and
# remove all empty subdirs afterwards.
#
# make sure you set recycle:touch = yes
# in your smb.conf.

# set vars
recycle_dir='/mystorage/recycle/your_recycle_dir_name'
lastaccess_maxdays=30

# execute commands
find $recycle_dir -atime +$lastaccess_maxdays -type f -delete
find $recycle_dir -type d ! -path $recycle_dir -empty -delete

I didn’t see any Recycle bin for user home directory.

I cannot tell (don’t know).
