Hi @Walter,
We have 1 Linux with 6 users. All 6 users running Dropbox agent with selective sync. All the 6 users Dropbox folder symlinked to one folder which is shared over SMB by the Linux itself.

Dropbox StaffHi kegloadam, can you clarify if the folder is shared only over the network, or if it's a shared folder in Dropbox too?
Do you simply want to have the files located in Dropbox, and share them over your local network to be accessible for other users?
Hi Megan,
It's mixed. 🙂 Some folders shared via Dropbox as well (online). And all files shared over SMB locally from the Linux itself.
The use case is: Internal users can reach all Dropbox files via SMB and 6 dropbox clients (6 different Linux users) syncing all the files (6 "main folder" with selective sync). Its reason to have 6 different users with selective sync instead of 1 is that, we have 2 millions of files and re-indexing after a reboot or just periodically (when the dropbox client wants to do it) takes much less time with this solution.
