disallow certain files on Ibays?
« on: January 25, 2011, 04:18:49 AM »
Hello All,

Is there any way we could disallow certain files e.g mp3 and avi on the Ibays? I have difficulty preventing users from saving unnecessary files to the server. Those kind of files eats a lot of space to our server

Regards,
Rocel

Hi Rocel,

In SME you can set per user filesystem Quota.
Never try to disallow by filename extension like mp3, avi.. that won't work. Your users can just rename the files to something else
