Hi there,

we have just lost an imp file that was on a samaba share..how do I know that how that file was deleted...the samba share files do not go to recycle bin on the windows machine...any idea where it goes after being deleted???

Unless you have setup Samba to use a recycle bin, it really gets deleted.

Is there anyway I can trace if how was that file deleted?

Just restore from your backup in the normal way.

Take a look at this:

don't know if it helps, but it's worth a try.
