Hello, I have a problem with mounting a w2k share to a linux box for do a backup with rsync. The files in the mounted w2k share have sometimes unicode signs like the ? sign or other symbols and german umlaut. I try samba 3.0. If I copy the files from the win box to a samba share, the files name is shown correct and in a linux terminal you see that they are successfully converted. May be I want to mount a w2k share. But in the mounted share the characters are displayed with '?'. If I mount with option iocharset=utf8,codepage=cp850, only the german umlaut are displayed right. But not the euro charcter or some other symbols. If I use smbclient with option -t utf8, I see the files with the right characters, but I can?t fetch them with mget or get. The next step I try is to run rsync on the win box, in hope that the characters are than also right converted like a copy to a smb share from the win box. I hope anybody can help me !! Regards sven
