It's not necessarily three letters, anything with a ":" or "\" in it's
name will do the same thing.

I took some time to check the files in that share, and I finally found a
thumbs.db:encryptable file.
I guess this is a thumbnail cache file generated by Windows clients, but
what is this :encryptable part in the file name ?

After google through, it appears that this would be an alternate data
stream. Do I need this if I serve files only for non-macos clients ?
Can I disable this feature then ?

Thanks.

François
