2018-08-23

The SMB protocol supports a file metadata system similar to Macintosh forks known as Alternate Data Streams (ADSes hereafter). macOS did not support storing resource forks in ADSes on SMB volumes by default until Mac OS X v10.6.

From <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_fork>

Now that we know what the unnamed data stream looks like, we can start thinking in terms of alternates. Knowing that the place we normally store data is the unnamed data stream, if a stream has a name, it is alternate. So if I had a file with an ADS named SecondStream, its full name would be, $DATA:”SecondStream”

From <https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/askcore/2013/03/24/alternate-data-streams-in-ntfs/>

STREAMS.EXE is fine, and I’ve used it for years, but with the release of Win8/Server 2012, I’ve discovered a new way of dealing with ADS….Windows PowerShell. Using the cmdlet, Get-Item,

From <https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/askcore/2013/03/24/alternate-data-streams-in-ntfs/>

ReFS initially did NOT support alternate data streams. However, this became a problem for things like FCI and other legitimate applications that utilized ADS. So new functionality was added to ReFS. It now supports ADS. No changes to support hardlinks at this time.

From <https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/askcore/2013/03/24/alternate-data-streams-in-ntfs/>

I don’t mean to be smart aleck about it…but that’s what it is. We know from my older blog that a file is divided up into ‘attributes’ and one of these attributes is $DATA or simply called the data attribute. It is the part of the file we put data into. So if I have a text file that says, “This is my text”, then if I look at the data attribute, it will contain a stream of data that reads, “This is my text”. However, this is the normal data stream, sometimes called the primary data stream, but more accurately it is called the unnamed data stream. Why? Because it is a data stream that has no name. In the jolly land of programming it is referred to as $DATA:””
