Hi! I have searched the net, but I finally didn't find an answer. I have a Samba TNG installation here, with some problems, and I would really like to replace it with 3.0 now (2.2 is missing some important functionality I need, so I would like to try the "unstable" 3.0).
I compiled and installed, it works fine as pdc, but I don't get some national special characters (German umlauts in my case). I found some hints about the undocumented dos / unix / display charsets, but NOWHERE anything explaining these new keywords in smb.conf. I have iconv installed, and I assume that on the Linux-side, 8859-1 has been used so far (is there a way to determine this???). What do I need if I have ISO_8859-1 on the Windows 2000 clients as well? Do I need all three parameters? And there is some strange behaviour, when I tried the charset-parameters, I could use the dos charset parameter, but if I set the unix charset parameter, I get a "no interfaces found" error (with or w/o bind interfaces only). So, it would be great to get some hints about this changed functionality in the 3.0-Samba-line. Thanks in advance, CU, Lars O.
