samba - Mar 2004 - Problems with charsets and i18n

Hello list,

probably a known issue (but I haven't found a link yet):

I'm using 3.0.2a with 'unix charset = ISO8859-15' and get the
following then a file with ticks is created:
- desired: "???????`'??"
- displayed: "???????`'??"
                      ^^^
The euro sign is created correctly in a file name. The filename will be
displayed in the filesystem correctly.

Then I switch to LATIN1 the ticks are OK (correctly displayed from windows
client and in the Unix filessystem as well).

I'm using Suse SLES8 but I've seen the issue with debian as well with
locales set to de_DE.ISO8859-15 (or de_DE@euro on SLES8).

Surplus: The locales seem to be OK and it's possible to create files with
ticks and euro sign on the console.

Any Ideas?
Ralf Tomczak

Use:

        dos charset = ISO8859-15
        unix charset = ISO8859-15
        display charset = ISO8859-15

It works fine for me...
