Can anyone confirm my obserwations? I use samba 3.0.23c and KDE-3.5.5 kio_smb_slave must have a bug.
I tried to create new file with a name containing polish letters in the shared WinXP directory (in konqueror smb://windoza/i18n) and the filename is readable only in konqueror. I get strange characters in windows. smbclient from the command-line handles the same task properly. kioslave uses the same library - libsmbclient.so But in fact I am a little confused. As can be read in documentation, samba talks utf-8. So why I have to use the codepage option to mount the share from winXP with proper filenames encoding, i.e. smbmount //windoza/i18n /home/juras/smb -o iocharset=iso8859-2,codepage=cp852 BTW. There is another strange thing: I can add a line to fstab, to mount samba resources, but I cannot use any option, which is not understood by smbmount (man says differently). For example, I had in my fstab a line: //windoza/mp3 /media/smb smbfs \ noauto,user,iocharset=iso-88592,codepage=cp852,username=juras,password=xxxx 0 0 to be able to mount /media/smb when needed. However, noauto and user option causes smbmount to generate error (in kern.log): Feb 2 00:42:21 kaptah kernel: smbfs: Unrecognized mount option noauto and seems to ignore the rest of options (at least the option codepage). In fact the filesystem is mounted but with wrong encoding. I do not expect simple explanation. Just confirm anyone if you observe something similar.
