Hello, I'm facing a problem that should be common but for which I don't find much info. I'm trying to smbmount some smb share served by a w2k3 server. I've no problem to mount the shares unless their name includes accented letters. I've successfully replaced the spaces in the names by \040 but replacing the accented letter by their UTF-8 and latin-1 in octal value, but that doesn't seems to do the trick. The client is a ubuntu 10.04 with mount.cifs version: 1.12-3.4.7 Anybody knows the way to express arbitrary characters in a smbmount stanza? Thanks, Nicolas

Guessing: I think w2k3 uses UCS-2; what happens if you replace the accented letter by its UCS-2 code? Moray. "To err is human. To purr, feline"
