Hi, Christopher Thanks. but the plain text passwd is really a concern and also the user's passwd will change periodically on the win sys. it is a quite large org, and the internal security is also an issue.

It is very easy to do that! example : at this live to your fstab : mount -t vfat -o codepage=936,iocharset=cp936 /dev/hda5 /mnt/d this line tell linux to mount the hda5 (which is the D: in M$window) The option next to -o tell linux to support chinese charset filename! Actually,I am a newbe to linux too! Yet,I think you should search for answer on google or some other engines before you sent a mail here!
