|From: edwin |In my LAN there is a Landisk with ip address and smb service. |I try to backup my file to this Landisk by mounting it and |then use tar. When I browse it through the M$ Windows machine |the backup file name is good, but when I ls to /mnt/landisk |there is strange character and I cannot extract all the file. |I can extract it through Windows explorer but this is not what |I want it. | |Anybody here has the same experience? |Any help will be very helpfull for me.
Had the similar problem earlier with a lacie ethernet mini. But an update of cifs and the firmware on the lacie fixed it. It were probably a smb.conf setting there that were fixed. How does it look from within Konqueror? 'smb://'uses cifs It is a combination of charset used on client and on landisk and possibly mount point. On my servers I use the following setting under smb.conf global to avoid this problem: [global] dos charset = UTF-8 unix charset = UTF-8 display charset = UTF-8 You should set an utf-8 enabled charset to view the files. -- MortenB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
