hi there, i setup a samba server (actually two) on a redhat box:
[root@SALOMON root]# cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Linux release 7.2 (Enigma) [root@SALOMON samba]# uname -a Linux SALOMON 2.4.9-31 #1 Tue Feb 26 07:11:02 EST 2002 i686 unknown [root@SALOMON root]# smbd -V Version 2.2.4 and i am having the following problems: i need the files that are shared to have german umlauts, hence i need support for iso8859-1 in samba. what i have is: character set = iso8859-1 client code page = 850 this works perfectly fine for the windows machines, they see the files correctly, can create files correctly and the files are created correctly on the filesystem. but if i do a smbmount (or rather mount -t smbff) from another linux machine (this case a redhat 6.2 box with some 2.2.x kernel) it shows the umlauts as ? and creates files wrong. if i removethe above two options from smb.conf it works fine in linux, but not anymore in windows. i tried to fiddle around with include and %a a bit, but that didnt work out either. man smbmount has something calles iocharset for 2.4.x kernels, is that what i need? there has to be some way... thanks in advance, stephan -- Zensur ist Reklame auf Staatskosten --ambrose bierce -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
