netatalk and samba and national characters

[Andreas Lehmann]

Dear list,

we have running SuSE-linux 6.3 system running samba and netatalk. The files
are shared among Mac and Windows PC clients. 

The users use to write file names with (german) national characters like
u-umlaut. 

Now the following happens:

        File names created by the Mac are ok to the Mac (an "�" (u-umlaut) appears
as an "�" (u-umlaut)).

        File names created by the PC are ok to the PC (     
"                         "           ).

        File names created by the Mac show wrong names to the PC ("�" (u-umlaut)
show as "9f" on the PC).
        File names created by the PC show wrong names to the Mac ("�" (u-umlaut)
show as "," on the Mac).

What are we doing wrong here? Is there any known solution for this?


Thanks in advance

        
        Andreas
