I am proud to announce the availability of treeconv, a program designed to do in-place charset conversion of filenames. It was programmed in order to convert the files stored at a customer's system from "cp850"( Samba 2.x ) to "utf8"( Samba 3.x ) charsets when upgrading Samba at the fileservers. Dependencies: g++ ( both 2.95 and GCC 3.3.x are proved to work )

Environment: Red Hat 9.0 x86 Samba 3.0.1 Compiled with: --prefix=/usr/samba --with-lockdir=/usr/samba/var/locks --with-automount --with-pam --with-quotas --with-acl-support --with-smbwrapper I have been using Samba 2.2.x, and have files and dirs with umlauts (specifically, o's with two dots over them, as in Bj?rk) which display fine in Windows mounted shares. These same files/dirs show up

I have to upgrade a 2.2.8a (Debian) installation to 3.0.14a (Debian too). I have quite everything clear but I am afraid I will get into trouble with the filename encoding on disk. The current samba installation has no explicit codepage declared for the file system, and running "testparm" gives only these settings (which are default) for codepages and charsets:

Allow to skip testing the filesystem "foo" if the environment variable SKIP_TEST_CHARSET_FIDELITY_foo=1 is set. This way it possible to not test one or more filesystems without disabling the test altogether. --- tests/charsets/test-charset-fidelity.c | 14 +++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/tests/charsets/test-charset-fidelity.c

Hi all, I hope someone might be able to offer me some advice. I have a NAS box, a QNAP TS-109 which runs a version of Debian Linux. It has a local ext3 drive, and I also smbmount a network drive on it (a Lacie ED mini which I have tried formatted as both ext3 and FAT32 without solving my problems). My problem is that I am unable to correctly rsync files with accented characters in the names

Hi all, Debian Server with linux-image-2.6.18-5-amd64 and Samba 3.0.24-6et: When I run testparm I get the error: Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf init_iconv: Conversion from UTF-16LE to IS0-8859-15 not supported init_iconv: Attempting to replace with conversion from UTF-16LE to ASCII init_iconv: Conversion from UTF8 to IS0-8859-15 not supported init_iconv: Attempting to

Greetings, There is currently an open bug report for vorbis-tools, but also affecting the Flac tools supplied by Xiph on the OS X platform (which I suspect uses the same code): accented characters are corrupted during read/write, to the effect that manipulation of track metadata that includes accented characters result in the corruption of the involved fields. I contacted the Xiph developer

Hi! This teamware mailclient (teamware.com) that we use at the office has problems adding files as attachments from our Samba 3.0.2a share. The attachment file browser sees the files but fails to add them as attachments (with an error message: "valid.stf - file not found" regardless of the file name in question). I tracked this thing down to scandinavian letters (if your mail

Gents, I just figured out that redirect_to do something with the HTTP headers. Specially the Content-type and charset. I mean: I got diferent encodings (charsets) if I use http://myapp.com/welcome/index or http://myapp.com/welcome/ Can anyone tell me how can I solve that?

I have successfully installed and launched Sibelius (music typesetting software) on linux (with codeweavers preview 4, w/ a fake_windows install). It works fairly well, and would probably deserve a 4 on the app database. Except for the fonts, which kind of defies the purpose of a typesetting software! Here are the symptoms and some log activities : * No musical symbols are displayed (except

I am running an app that runs just fine, except that one font comes up as rectangles. I get the following fixme: fixme:font:WineEngCreateFontInstance Untranslated charset 255 fixme:font:WineEngCreateFontInstance just using first face for now .wine/.../fonts is empty but I assume since all other fonts are OK I don't need any more fonts. What I think I need is some sort of mapping from

Hey there, After searching for quite some time I'm finally just going to ask the people who know :) I'm having trouble when listing the files on a samba share that's hosted on a Mac OS X 10.4 server. The client is an Kubuntu Dapper Linux machine. This happens only when using smbmount (smbfs) and not when I use Konqueror with smb:// . The problem is that files with certain characters

Hello List, Can anyone please help explain how Samba handles long filename conversion to DOS 8.3 tilde format? I have a client with a Windows app that works great when using 8.3 type filenames. When an attempt to use long filenames is made, the files are created great and the data is there. But when the app builds the index and attempt to retrieve the data file is made, the wrong file is

Hi there Over the years there's been many people saying how files with non-ASCII charsets got their filenames "corrupted" moving between different systems. So I'm wondering what the current state is with rsync-3.06+? ie I want to use rsync-3.06+ to backup WinXP+ (and MacOS?) filesystems by using native versions of rsync clients to a remote Linux-based rsyncd process. If I do

Dear List In my short life as a beginning R-user i've encountered a following problem that i'm unable to solve myself: I have a database in MySQL containing table and field names as well as some data containing Polish accentuated characters (like ????), utf8-encoded. It works just fine with just any external query browser i can find, jdbc, odbc, native, whatever. Also mysql is happy

Hi All! I have BSD box running 4.6.2-RELEASE ... I build and install samba-3.0alpha20 with key --with-iconv. My smb.conf in global part have next strings: dos charset = CP866 ; unix charset = KOI8-U display charset = CP866 I run utilitys testparm and see the next messages: Conversion from UCS-2LE to CP866 not supported Conversion from UCS-2LE to CP866 not supported

Hello list, I've noticed this problem for a few years now, I think. I see it popped out now and then in discussions. But they always end before a solution is given. So let's try one more time :-) I have plenty of UTF-8 named files and directories. It's UTF-8 all round, I don't use anything else, so I have no doubt the byte sequences are correct in the filesystem (I happen to

hi, all I am a new user of wine. when i run it , the following messages are printed. fixme:nls:init_default_lcid charset GB18030 was not recognized; what should i do to handle it ?
