samba - May 2005 - cifs share / unable to load nls charset utf8

Hi,

ive got some problems with my shares(cifs), the server/client (both 
gentoo) is utf8 ready but i cant get typical german sings like "???"
to
work, all i get is ? instead of the  chars.
i can see the chars from my windows xp machine, but why not from the 
linux client?

regards
julius

What do you have for "display charset" in [global]? Mine's unset,
which
gives LOCALE by default, which means I get to see Norwegian letters at
the CLI, but *only* because my LANG=no_NO.UTF-8. I also get the wanted
result when I set "display charset" to UTF-8.

If your LC_LANG is other than whatever_WHATEVER.UTF-8  you probably
won't get to see German characters at the CLI anyway, sniff sniff.
