Unfortunately we have network access per username...
That's not exactly the way I see it.  IMHO, it seem to me, that D-Link has implemented network access per 'share'.  I believe, it would be a tremendous improvement in usability for the DNS-323, if D-Link could actually implement access per username.

Of course, this doesn't solve the common recycle bin issue you brought up, but access per username sure would be great!

You are correct, misuse of wording on that. It is per share. Same issue still applys :).

Sorry.  Just trying to help. 

FYI, A common recycle bin isn't a problem for home networks or most small office networks.  You have a good product here, please don't go the mickeysoft route of thinking that you know best and end-users are idiots.  The recycle bin can be configured for each use (just google samba config), I (and most others googling this issue) just didn't want to do it that way. 

Again, sorrry, it's a shame really, just trying to help.

Take it easy...there is a reason why OS's have this and it works. If you want a disable option I'll bump that.

Keeping our client files on the NAS is the reason why we own the DNS-323. We have to keep them for 7 years and aren't he type of business that will benefit from a full on enterprise networking solution but we are high  paced never the less. Some of the users here use the NAS for more than storing warez and **** that can suffer deletion. If one of our employees deletes a file / folder and we don't have a paper backup we are screwed should we be audited. I'd like to go fully paperless but we need a recycling bin to prevent the accidental deletions that may or may not occur.

Just a clarification that may not be obvious to the new user. If you just write to /etc/samba/smb.conf then the changes will be lost with each power-down/reboot.
If I remember correctly, I was able to (1) modify the smb.conf file and (2) save add'l Samba changes via the configuration web page. The latter seemed to cause the edits I made in (1) stick. I did not try to add the recycle bin, explicitly, but other settings that were not available on the web page did stick (i.e., changing the default share names).

while it would be a welcome feature; you can do this (recycle bin) more-or-less already.

-move files instead of deleting them
-set permissions for users to read-only, except for an admin (if you have family members that are a little too quick with the delete key)
