NAME

       vfs_readonly - make a Samba share read only for a specified time period


SYNOPSIS

       vfs objects = readonly


DESCRIPTION

       This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.

       The vfs_readonly VFS module marks a share as read only for all  clients
       connecting within the configured time period. Clients connecting during
       this time will be denied write access to all files in the share,  irre-
       spective of ther actual access privileges.

       This module is stackable.


OPTIONS

       readonly:period = BEGIN, END
          Only  mark  the share as read only if the client connection was made
          between the times marked by the BEGIN and END date  specifiers.  The
          syntax  of these date specifiers is the same as that accepted by the
          -d option of GNU date(1).


EXAMPLES

       Mark all shares read only:


               [global]
            vfs objects = readonly


       Mark the [backup] share as read only during business hours:


               [backup]
            path = /readonly
            vfs objects = readonly
            readonly:period = readonly:period = "today 9:00","today 17:00"
