Slackware 11.0, Samba 3.0.23c After two years absence from Samba I need to use it again. A week ago I switched my entire network to UTF8 which works fine locally, works fine via NFS.
Now mounting the SMB shares german Umlauts are broken. "Für alle ein Segen.mp3" becomes "F?r alle ein Segen.mp3" Server config: [global] display charset = UTF-8 workgroup = CITADEL server string = Samba %v log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 10240 valid users = dexter admin users = dexter read list = dexter write list = dexter printer admin = dexter hosts allow = 192.168.0.0/24 [media] path = /mnt/data/media read only = No The fstab entry on the client: //xerxes/media /mnt/xerxes/smb/media cifs credentials=<foo>,rw,users 0 0 So - why no UTF-8 chars? -- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCS d--(+)@ s-:+ a- C++++ UL++ P+>++ L+++>++++ E-- W++ N o?
