Hi all, I have a file that samba does not know how to access. The file is located on a w2k server. The samba box is a member of the w2k domain (ADS). When I try to access the file via nfs I get "no such file or directory". In the logs I get the following error:

When I look at this file from the windows machine I see some kind of weird symbol that kind of looks like 2 "S" characters one on top of the other. If I do an ls using tab completion I get an error as shown below. (bfs pts6) # ll lexis_com\(SM\)\ \ Get\ a\ Document\ -\ by\ Citation\ -\ D_C_\ Code\ ^U\ 36-1401.htm 36-1401.htm: No such file or directory If I do a simple I get the display below.

(bfs pts6) # In the smb.conf I have "unix charset = LOCALE" per the samba howto. The LANG environ on the machine is as follows: (bfs pts6) # echo $LANG en_US.UTF-8 (bfs pts6) # The samba server is a RHEL3 box with samba-3.0.9-1.3E.3 rpms installed. Does anyone know how to configure samba so that it can recgonize the same characters that windows can??
