[CentOS] Hiding Files in Samba

I may need a strong shot of coffee but I though
putting "hide files = /~*/" as follows in the 
samba config file would hide files with a tilde.

[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   browseable = no
   writable = yes
   hide files = /~*/


Unfortunately after restarting the server the files
are still visible.
