Hi all, Can anyone please advise if it is possible to mount a Windows share and view files with chinese filenames ? I am able to view the files on the local disk, however the files on the Windows share display as ??????.htm I have tried mounting with the following commands smbmount //xxxxxxxx/filesync /mnt/filesync -o username=xxxxx,codepage=cp950,isocharset=utf8 or mount -t smbfs -o username=xxxxx,codepage=cp950,iocharset=utf8 //xxxxxxxx/filesync /mnt/filesync However it still doesn't seem to work. Can anyone please advise if it is truly possible ? Thanks Adam
Can anyone advise if this is possible ?? I really don't want to revert to Windows for my solution... Linux is just gaining some momentum in my firm, and if this is not possible, then it will likely be dropped for all future implementations. thanks Adam Cassar -----Original Message----- From: samba-bounces+ausacz=bmasia.com@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-bounces+ausacz=bmasia.com@lists.samba.org] On Behalf Of Cassar, Adam Sent: Thursday, 14 April 2005 12:40 PM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] Mounting a Windows Share with UTF8 files Hi all, Can anyone please advise if it is possible to mount a Windows share and view files with chinese filenames ?
