Good Evening, I was wondering if anyone knows how to clear a share on a server using a command line interface ?
Basically I have a [public] share that I would like cleared down every night, I've worked out that smbclient //apps-srv/public -N -c "del *" > /var/log/samba_public_delete.log 2>&1 seems to go most of the way to doing what I want - however it doesn't delete subdirectories. Is there any easy way to accomplish this ? I prefer the idea of running this rather than a 'rm -rf' from the command line as I can script this and as it's a public share the possibility of deleting anything else is pretty minimal. I've seen a few examples of wayward rm command in crons to be wary of doing that ! Any ideas how I could accomplish this ?
