Hello list! Sorry to be a pain, but I've hunted high and low and can't seem to find the answer.
I have a Slackware 10 system and a Microsoft Windows 2000 system. On the Windows 2000 system are lots of files with extended characters - like (tm), (r) and characters with umlauts. I used the "locale" command and set LC_ALL=en_US.UTF8. I am running KDE and in the Konqueror browser I can use smb:// to connect to a share on the Windows system. All extended characters display as expected. If I use the "smbmount" command to mount these shares, and then use Konqueror to browse to "/mnt/projects" I can not longer see the extended characters. An example of one of the many variants of smbmount I have used: smbmount //systemx/projects /mnt/projects/ -o username=******,password=******,workgroup=****,codepage=cp850,iocharset= utf8 The filesystem for /mnt/projects is reiserfs, which I understand supports utf8 just fine, though I have not used any explicit mount options. Can anybody guide me towards the magic that will make this work? If it makes any difference, I am trying to mount many shares for the purpose of using "s-tar" to archive old files.
