This has nothing to do with SME Server packages or function, moving to General Discussion as it is more appropriate there. Please take care of posting in the proper forum. Thanks in advance.

It seems that this is some Apple quircky solution: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AppleSingle_and_AppleDouble_formats

Couldn't you just exclude that folder when copying or remove it on the destination after copying?

Have a look at the find command, documentation can be found using:

Code: [Select]

man findMost likely it would be something like this IIRC:

Code: [Select]

find -type f -iname *AppleDouble -exec {rm -f} \;

What do you mean with nothing happened? The command does not show anything but should delete items in the current directory and it's sub directories.
