Having searched the documentaion and the archive, and having this alluded to, but not addressed directly, I was hoping someone here could set me straight: I need to be able to support multiple languages for separate users: english, simplified chinese, traditional chinese, and korean han. Is it correct that under 2.2.x that I can only get one of those at a time, using the smb.conf options 'character set' and 'client code page" ? And that under 3.x with unicode support I will be to have them use whatever alternate character set they wish? I am curently using 2.2.6 (mandrake 9.0). It is ever so much more stable than the win2k server I am migrating the files off of. If there is currently a way to support multple users having their different character sets, I would greatly appreciate a shove in the right direction Thanks Barry Hunter Priest

On 2.2.x you get English plus one other language (because standard ASCII characters are a subset of the other codepages from what I understand). 3.0's UNICODE support will correct this deficiency. cheers, jerry --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hewlett-Packard ------------------------- http://www.hp.com SAMBA Team ---------------------- http://www.samba.org GnuPG Key ---- http://www.plainjoe.org/gpg_public.asc ISBN 0-672-32269-2 "SAMS Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours" 2ed "I never saved anything for the swim back."
