hello,
i have some trouble to configure my samba file-server.
i must configure a backup server, for an other main-file-server.
The "main-file-server" is a blackbox-server, without any terminal
access.
the main-server is used by some printer-servers querry.
the filenames in the main-server shows like:
"smb://123.123.123.123/sharename/a file\name.txt"
in words: i need all special chars for useing as filename.
in bash i have no problems creating a file with a backslash:
#> touch "a\\test.txt"
#> ls
a\test.txt
#>
but i can not see the file from remote with a MAC.
(Windows has problems to handle this files, but the MACos can read and
write this special files on the main-server, but not on the samba
backup-server)
How can i make it workable, with filenames with special chars like "\"
(backslash) in the name ?
PS: Sorry for my bad english.
best regards,
Daniel S.
