Thanks but NG ... I need to copy any such files from a shell script
on the Unix side as they appear

Try doing cat XXX?.url. To rename it, try mv XXX?.url XXX2.url.
Alternatively, try using a graphical file manager to access the
files. They should allow you to rename or copy the files.
Or you can try renaming them on the Windows side.

Hi
I am running Samba v3.0.20-2 on Redhat Linux.
to get right to the point:
THE PROBLEM:
I am using mount with type=smbfs to mount a WIndows XP share.
The share has filenames with special chars (the Registered symbol
(r)) . This filename appears in Linux directory listings with a
"r" in place of the (r) char. If I try to access the file, I get
a "File not found".
i.e.
"ls -l" shows filename "XXXr.url"
but if I try "cat XXXr.url" I get the msg "XXXr.url no such file
or directory"
WHAT I HAVE TRIED:
I have tried setting the dos charset and unix charset both to
UTF-8 with no results, likewise to the DOS default CP850
Anyone know how to address this? It would be an acceptable
solution to substitute chars in the filename, I just need to be
able to access/ copy it.
Thanks
