I tried to access my windows share on local network with Konqueror and I see 
some problem with Long File names and file names with mixed case names. For 
example,
if I enter a URL smb:/win1/ in Konq. location bar, it asks me for user name 
and password. When I enter that it shows me the windows shares. I click on 
one of the shares and Konq shows the whole directory listing. I have long 
file names in this directory. One directory for example is "Internet 
Downloads". Konq. shows this as
"INTERNE~". If I click on that name to see the directory contents, it 
complains that no such directory exists. But if I enter the complete URL 
with that directory name as 'smb:/win1/cdrive/Internet Downloads' it works 
properly. How do I tell konqueror to show the long file names properly, 
instead of DOS 8.3 format. Other observation is that if I mount that windows 
share with usual mount command and browse Konq shows everything properly 
with long file names.

Can somebody help?

Thanks,
amit
