Hi Samba, Yes, it works ! First time the (Unicode) Hebrew setup is fine.
I would recommend others with non-English charactersets to test the UNICODE enivronment. The idea is that Unix/Linux and XP (not Windows 98..) environment use the same language encoding. We use Linux Redhat 9, make sure the Samba global variables include - unixcharset utf-8 - display charset locale Now when we store files on the server, the "unicode-ready" applications may display the Windows characterset. For example in the "PuTTY" communications software you can change the char set under "change settings" "windows" translation" "received char set" to UTF-8. This change solves a lot of problems for us, for example finding the files in our backup software. (Till now Hebrew filenames would show up as gibberish.) Unfortunately not all linux applications seem to support unicode yet. Thanks Jerry and the great Samba team !
