I've setup Samba as a PDC for my network. Everything works OK except for Hebrew file names -- I just can't make it work. I tried following the instructions in the Samba manual & in Iglu.org.il. I added "client code page = 862" & "character set = ISO8859-8" to my smb.conf, I had to use make_smbcodepage to create codepage.862 from CP862.TXT in Samba's sources (for some reason I didn't have that codepage in /etc/codepages) and also to use make_unicodemap to create unicode_map.ISO9959-8 from CPISO8859-8.TXT in Samba's sources. Samba seems to load the codepages (if I move any of the relevant codepage files from /etc/codepages smbstatus says Samba failed to load the client codepage), but when I try to copy a file with a Hebrew filename I get weired results -- some letters become "N", some become ".", if I create a new file named New Text Document and rename it to a Hebrew filename with X letters, it gets renamed to the first X letters in "New Text Document" (i.e -- "???" becomes "New"). My client is Windows 2K Pro.
What could be the cause of this? Is it a problem with my Samba configuration, my codepages (is there a place I can download them from?), my Win2K configuration? Thanks.
