Linux doesnt see most file extensions - there are some exceptions. Is smb.conf one of them? Linux n00b
It can be renamed to smb.bak for a backup so Im presuming its one of the exceptions.
I speed read Linux doesnt need most file extensions but dont recall it all. Can you explain why it hasnt and how it manages without the need extensions like windows?
Thanks

So how does samba know which file to read? The first two are backups
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 12672 Mar 8 18:04 smb.bak
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 11831 Mar 7 22:17 smb.bk
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15043 Mar 23 02:10 smb.conf
