I'm accessing a share on a win2k3 server using samba-2.2.7a smbclient, and everything works fine. When I looked at the tcpdump, the SMB Trans2 Requests sent from the smbclient to the server have the Unicode strings bit set to 1. I want to disable this and test it. Could someone tell me how to disable this in the smb.conf file or in the command line option ? Thanks Ravi
