Hello.
I am admin of our linux student server and I configured Samba. Everything works
perfect, except one thing. We are serving to Windows 95 machines. These are the
first version of Win95 (not OSR2), localized for Czech Republic. It uses
codepage
CP1250, which is not shipped with Samba distribution. As other middle European
countries it uses codepage 852 under DOS. So I set up:
client code page =3D 852
character set =3D ISO8859-2
Oh, I forgot, we are using ISO-8859-2 on linux server.
It works somewhat, but not as good as I need. Normal files I can save and read.
But those broken windows, when creating new folder, creates foldar with name
containing characters which it cannot handle correctly.
It creates folder called "Nov=E1 slo=9Eka". The problem is character
"=9E".
Its unicode numbers are:
017D - Z with caron
017E - z with caron
I think there's problem with s with caron too.
I have tried to make codepage and unicode tables for CP1250, but they
haven't work. Maybe there are some functional to download, or some advices
how to make it running.
The strange thing is that windows ask if if should make new folder, it might be
inaccessible. So I answer yes and it creates a folder called "Nov=E1
slo=9Eka". It creates it well on linux, its name is right. On Linux with
different codepage it has good name. Everything seems ok. But if I want access
this folder, windows told me that this folder does not exist. Maybe there is
problem with casing, because
this folder IS there.
I really don't know what to do, maybe you have some advice.
Thank you,
Petr Mensik (Pihhan)
