Hello: I have found the CP1256.TXT file to compile unicode_map.1256 codepage for Samba 2.2.1a. When I change the directive to "client code page = 1256" Smbd complains that the codepage.1256 is not found. I tried making a copy of the unicode page to a code page but smbd complains that it is the wrong page size. Do I have to create a code page called codepage.1256 from scratch or is there a solution out there. What are the unicode_map.xxx files for ? I guess all I am asking is how can I get codepage.1256 (arabic support) to work on Samba Regards, Anmar

Now I did compile CP1256.TXT to unicode_map.1256 file using "make_unicodemap" command. Basically, I have in my codepages directroy a all the codepages files Samba 2.2.1 came with plus the "unicode_map.1256" file. Do I need a codepage.1256 file or not, and if not, what should I put next to the "client code page =" line ? Thanks Anmar -- Anmar Oueja B.A.Sc.

The thing is unicode_map.1256 is not enough Samba complains > about not finding the "codepage.1256" > > Regards, > > AnmarFunny you mention that. I did exactly that and samba complained that the codepgae is the wrong size. ARG....... It is frustrating. I appreciate your help though :) BTW, do you know how to create a code page. Are there any tools to extract the codepages from windows. Regards, Anmar -- Anmar Oueja B.A.Sc. Engineering Manager Central Place 4370 Dominion Street 3rd. Floor Burnaby, BC.
