Hi all ! I'm new on this mailing list... We have just installed samba v1.9.18p4. But we have problems with mangling of file names. We would like to preserve the case of windows files > 8 char. when copying files to the server. However, we want to keep 8.3 format files in lower case. The question is : how to configure all the

...ian wheezy (version 3.6.6) and i am experiencing some troubles with file name mangling. If i try "dir /x" on a mapped folder it gives me unexpected mangled names: the name mangling matches only the first character and not the first 5 as i expect. For example: if the long file name is LONGFILENAME.TXT, i expect the mangled sholud be something like LONGF~01.TXT, but i see: LNHQX6~C.TXT I tried to change mangling method = hash (instead of the default hash2) also i tried the solution posted here: http://www.oreilly.com/openbook/samba/book/ch05_04.html but no luck. The the share are on XFS...

Hello, we have a ubuntu-server edgy file server (file system of the shared files: ext3) and a win xp client with an old program that shows up the 8-char version of long file names. While in windows the association is as follows: longfilename -> LONGFI~1 longfilename2 -> LONGFI~2 ...in ext3 the association is not so 'straight-on' and this forces my colleague to guess the names... Is there a way to force a windows-like association between long file names and their short version? Thanks in advance. Regards, Marco

...ates, reads, edits, fonts, etc all seem to be fine. However any write causes a disk full or permissions error. I am running as root root in this case and other programs under wine write w/o error. If it is any clue the file name shows up as all caps in 8.3 format i.e. LONGFI~1.DOC as opposed to longfilename.doc. This is true for all the writes from MS Word. The partiction is FAT32 and is configured: >[Drive C] >"Path" = "/mnt/win98" >"Type" = "hd" >"Label" = "win98" >"Filesystem" = "win95" > (BTW what...

I'm using RedHat 7.3 and samba 2.2.7a, Using windows98 and NT4 workstations, I get a weird problem. Writing a longfilename directory on a real NT server a direct. like program files would be \progra~1 On a samba server it's changed in progr~NK or something like this. It's never the same. Therefor, for older dos applications it's not possible to enter the directory. Is this a problem only I have? Or di...

...ining long filenames. To fix it in your current setup, create a 8.3 name symlink on the UNIX side to point to the long filename directory and run the 16 bit executables from there. The good news is that we have worked around this for Samba2.0 and 2.0 will allow NT to run 16 bit executables from a longfilename directory correctly. 2.0 is due out any day now (as soon as I finish my regression tests.... :-). Hope this helps, Jeremy Allison, Samba Team. -- -------------------------------------------------------- Buying an operating system without source is like buying a self-assembly Space Shuttle w...

Hi James, this sounds familiar - I believe I looked at a wire trace, and windows is dropping the trailing dots BEFORE it sends the request over the wire. so samba never sees the name foo..., thus does not create it.
