So I have lots of files with weird characters in the name. Those <F6>, <F4>, etc characters are listed as "?", for instance "Making?Food?Recipe.doc". The version of CIFS I use, (b125) does not allow listing of files with those characters in WinXP clients. I must stay with b125 because of issues in later builds.
So I need to somehow, find all these files and rename them in an automatic way. I have tried ls -R | grep "?" and then I find all file names with strange characters. But, I dont see the path to the file. Somewhere, in all subdirectories there are some files. But in which sub directory? Where? So I searched each file and renamed it manually. But that sucks. Hey, I am on Unix, not on Windows, there should be a way to automate it! Is there any automatic way to search and replace? I can replace all "?" with "a", that is ok. I think there is a program in IPS which identifies files which has "?" in file names? And I can convert those file names? Any suggestions? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ cifs-discuss mailing list cifs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/cifs-discuss
