<para>Note that the <parameter>case sensitive</parameter> option
is applicable in vetoing files.</para>
- <para>One feature of the veto files parameter that it is important
- to be aware of, is that if a directory contains nothing but files
- that match the veto files parameter (which means that Windows/DOS
- clients cannot ever see them) is deleted, the veto files within
- that directory <emphasis>are automatically deleted</emphasis> along
- with it, if the user has UNIX permissions to do so.</para>

+ <para>One feature of the veto files parameter that it
+ is important to be aware of is Samba's behaviour when
+ trying to delete a directory. If a directory that is
+ to be deleted contains nothing but veto files this
+ deletion will <emph>fail</emph> unless you also set
+ the <parameter>delete veto files</param> parameter to
+ <parameter>yes</parameter>.
+
<para>Setting this parameter will affect the performance
of Samba, as it will be forced to check all files and directories
for a match as they are scanned.</para>
