Hi, I am well aware that the charset problem has been discussed many times over. But after two days of googling and testing, I did not make any progress. I am mounting Windows XP Pro shares with french filenames on a Linux. The linux is a 2.4.27 kernel with the following settings: CONFIG_SMB_FS=y CONFIG_SMB_NLS_DEFAULT=y CONFIG_SMB_NLS_REMOTE="UTF8" CONFIG_SMB_NLS=y CONFIG_NLS=y

Hello, I don't seem to be able to mount a WindowsXP share with smbmount and get the correct charset. From what I understand Win2000/XP use UTF-8 for SMB shares, so I tried to mount with -o iocharset=utf8 but it did not make any difference. All extended characters are messed up or truncated. Here is what I found out using filenames with a '?': When I mount a

Hello list! Sorry to be a pain, but I've hunted high and low and can't seem to find the answer. I have a Slackware 10 system and a Microsoft Windows 2000 system. On the Windows 2000 system are lots of files with extended characters - like (tm), (r) and characters with umlauts. I used the "locale" command and set LC_ALL=en_US.UTF8. I am running KDE and in the Konqueror

Dear Samba Developers, Dear Urban, This was my original letter. I hope you get it correctly this time. Maybe it was too big, now I reduced the size of this letter. My goal is to make a Linux fileserver up and running with automatic archiving functionality in a mixed Windows 2000 - Linux network and since the beginning of February I could not solve my problem, so I write to you hoping that you

Hi: I have written to this list once before regarding the same problem. (ref smbmount problem on 03/28/2005) Paul Gienger sugested asking the "kernel boys" as they maintain smbmount. Maybe my problem wasn't deserving of a reply from them, maybe I subscribed to the wrong list. Can someone suggest a kernel list where I may get a useful reply? smbclient's ftp like interface

Hi, I'm in the process of setting up a backup server for a somewhat antiquated NT4 server. Backup server is CentOS-4 (~ RHEL-4), kernel-2.6.9-11.EL, samba-client-3.0.10-1.4E, rsync-2.6.3-1, LANG=en_US.UTF-8. NT4 shares are mounted on the server and rsynced to local disk. This setup is working pretty well, however on the NT box there are some files with names containing odd characters like

Problem: I create a file on a windows machine called sm?rebr?d.txt and mount said drive from a Linux machine via smbmount, there it becomes: sm?rebr?d.txt Had this problem with local disks, too, but fixed that by adding iocharset=iso8859-1

Hi, I'm having some problems with reading files with special characters from samba shares. The characters are for example '?' and '?' (and mainly all umlaut chracters). Before I have been using Fedora Core with ISO8859-1 as local character encoding and everything was OK when I mounted the samba share using options "iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850" with smbmount

I have a backup server (Linux Debian 3.1) that connects to several Windows 2000 and 2003 servers shares with smbmount 3.0.14a. This is how I mount the shares: smbmount "\\\\win2000\\inetpubd" /mnt/win2000/ -o username=backups,password=mypwd If I list items with accents, this is a sample of how they appear on the mounted share: drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 2005-12-01 16:45 D?but de

I am trying to access a share on a samba server using charset iso8859-1 from a client using the same charset via CIFS. "smbmount" has separate options for the server/client charset, using "codepage=cp850,iocharset=iso8859-1" gets the correct behavior in my case. Unfortunately, the parameter for specifying the server codepage doesn't seem to exist in "mount.cifs"

Hello List, on a windows-pc are files with an EURO-Sign "?" included in the filenames. This is working between all XP and 2000 Clients. But if i try to access such a file from a linux-box, I cannot read this files. I switched to the german charset with EURO Sign but no success. Then i tried the cifs instead of smbfs. But the same effect. Switching to UTF-8 doesn't work too.

Hello. It's a thing which all Russia and, I think, many other countries need. Patch allow you to specify smb server and local IO charsets. Two new options added to smbmount: iocharset=<charset> and servercharset=<charset>. They'll passed to kernel and proc.c module makes NLS conversion if need.

Hi list, I've browsed through the archives, but I didn't find a answer for this: I use smbclient to access a windowsNT 4.0 server. I get only '?' for filenames which contains Umlauts.
