Certainly did -- to the valley of the desperation :-) you didn't even
have to set codepage/character set in your smb.conf and it works :-) but
it figures, because Win98 doesn't use Unicode, and W2K does, and Samba
doesn't, so I guess this is the source to all the troubles. BUT -- I
understand this can be made to work some how..... Anyway I hope so :-)

Alon.
