Why this article?

On the original and modified stockfirmwares we always have a some default shares. The normal "share" is not the problem, but "info" is as you cannot get rid of it. This article describes how to deal with that problem.

LS1/LS2/HG/HS with Openlink

Description of the mechanism

mkcode!!

Solutions

Automatic removal of the info share

Disabling updating of smb.conf

there already is another article about this!

LSPro/LSLive with stock or modified stock firmware

Description of the mechanism

nas_configgen!!

Solutions

getting access with acp_commander!!

With sed

cp -a /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.orig
sed '/^\[info\]/,/guest ok = yes/d ; /^###info###/d' /etc/samba/smb.orig > /etc/samba/smb.conf

Paste that after line 20 in the /etc/init.d/smb.sh - info share is removed on restart, and every restart thereafter.

With a perl script
