Hello, I used with happiness Samba 2.2.3. Everything works perfectly but I noticed two problems with accented characters; the first one on Samba, the other one on Swat. I work with a win98 client and a Debian server. Win98 use codepage 850 but I noticed, in fact, it use codepage 1252 and I suppose that conversion is made with a file called 12520850.cpx. On my Linux box I set up codepage ISO8859-15 or fr_FR@euro locale. On Samba: - I let "client code page = 850"; - I set "character set = ISO8859-15"; - I let "valid chars = ", I tryed to pass different values to enable accented characters nothing works. I checked values between cp1252 and ISO8859-15. If both, are based on Unicode there is some differences between cp1252 and ISO8859-15 entries. For example, 'Euro sign' (Unicode 0x20AC) have a cp1252 value 0x80 and an ISO8859-15 value 0xA4. Result is from Win98 to Samba, 'Euro sign' (0x80) turn to a 'control/undefined character' translate by a 'Low line' (0x5F).

Hi David, Thanks for your reply. I compared cp1252 vs 8859-15 (1) and cp1252 vs 8859-1 (2) and your right, there is a bigger difference of characters in case (1) than in case (2), 8 more. In fact, those 8 characters do not match between 8859-15 and 8859-1 also. The others characters (27) are in control range of 8859-1/15 (0x80 to 0x9F). Thanks again.
