Mounting a CIFS Pervious Versions in Linux and restoring deleted files⚓︎
Overview⚓︎
CIFS shares which support Previous Versions can be accessed via the .snapshot
directory in the root of the share. This is a special hidden directory using NFS3 and NFS4 protocol specific methods which is not visible in tools like ls
or du
. You must explicitly call this .snapshot directory to be able to access the files contained within.
Steps⚓︎
Mount the CIFS share using the Linux CIFS v2 Mount documentation.
