samba - Jan 2004 - Capital Letters - Charset problem

Hello,

I have a strange problem with samba 3.0.1 on suse 8.1, when I mount an
NT shared directory the accented capitals letters are not recognised.
Everything works fine except for files having accented *capitals*.

My smb.conf has:

unix charset = ISO-8859-15
display charset = ISO-8859-15
dos charset = CP850
unicode = No

I tried compiling libiconv and recompiling samba with it, but with no
result.

Anyone can give me a hint?

Thanks a lot!

NEVER  set 'unicode = no'. 

This is known to be buggy, as Microsoft has not had an ASCII-only server
in a long-time.  The move to unicode was one of the major reasons for
Samba 3.0, and other advances has caused MS clients to become more buggy
with this setting (I have seen a BSOD on login).
