Hi, The solution is very simple, you need to convert the Hebrew file names on the server to UTF-8 encoded.
Here is a script adopted from the SAMBA docs: find /path/to/share -type f -exec bash -c 'CP="{}"; ISO=`echo -n "$CP" | \ iconv -f cp862 -t UTF-8`; if [ "$CP" != "$ISO" ]; then mv "$CP" \ "$ISO"; fi' \; Bye Gal On Sunday 26 October 2003 20:07, Dotan Mazor wrote: > Well, you could try to write "utf-8" instead of "utf".
