Remove existing

If you can not delete some directories with SMB one reason could be some existing hidden index folder.

To delete the '.@__thumb' directories, connect using ssh:

# cd /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/ or directory you want.

Then

find . -type d -name '.@__thumb' | while read ITEM; do rm -rfv "${ITEM}"; done
