Hmm had the same over here.. i got it kinda working for me with these smb.conf things..
mangle case = yes ( dunno why i use this one, but it's there) mangling method = hash (gues hash2 should do the trick as well..) mangle prefix = 6 (or 5 ??) the 6/5 stands for the number of original filename letters 12345~1.zip btw don't forget to shutdown en restart your samba server, otherwise it woun't work.. l8r Collen Tuesday, February 17, 2004, 3:29:05 PM, you wrote: T> Hi Jason, T> Tuesday, February 17, 2004, 3:02:59 PM, you wrote: JCW>> I have a directory that holds information in a shared directory.
