 Hye,

 we use a samba 2.2.3a which works fine most time.
 now i found that one client has some strange problems.
 when the user copies files to the smb-share some of them will be created
 with very strange filenames.

 For example let's say the original file is named:
 my_nicetestfile.txt then on the server the file will be created as

 my_nic~1.txt and also a file will be created called
 my_nicefile:{some_strange_chars_here_in}.txt

 has someone an idea how to solve this behaviour?

 thanks for all ideas.

Perhaps this is a problem with the different character sets (Unix, Windows 
Codepages).

Try to set these options in your smb.conf

character set = iso8859-1 (this char set will be used on the server)
client code page = 850 (this char set will be used for the clients)

I've used the Latin-1 (iso8859-1) char set and the European code page (850).

greetings

 Hye,
 
 we use a samba 2.2.3a which works fine most time.
 now i found that one client has some strange problems.
 when the user copies files to the smb-share some of them will 
 be created
 with very strange filenames.

 my_nicefile:{some_strange_chars_here_in}.txt

I'm betting on the ADS bug.

It was fixed AFAIK in 2.2.4. I would upgrade to 2.2.6.

Nir.

Known bug we fixed for 2.2.5 and above as I recall.
