Hi folks,
I am trying to access the shared folders on a Windows XP PC from a Linux (FC5)
PC using smbclient.
Linux config info:
$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
$ rpm -q samba
samba-3.0.24-6.fc5
smb.conf:
[global]
dos charset = CP936 <---
Simplified Chinese
unix charset = UTF-8
display charset = LOCALE
Now, here is the problem: smbclient can list the shared folders, including one
with a Chinese name; but smbclient can't access the Chinese folder itself.
The Chinese folder name could be messed up on your display due to either the
encoding or the fonts issue. This isn't the issue here.
$ smbclient -L kings-win -U user%passwd
Domain=[KINGS-WIN] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
IPC$ IPC 远程 IPC
SharedDocs Disk
D_Drive Disk
C_Drive Disk
我的音乐 Disk <---- shared
folder in Chinese
Domain=[KINGS-WIN] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
Server Comment
--------- -------
Workgroup Master
--------- -------
$ smbclient \\\\kings-win\\SharedDocs -U user passwd
Domain=[KINGS-WIN] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
smb: \>
So far, so good. Now, try to access the Chinese folder:
$ smbclient \\\\kings-win\\我的音乐 -U user passwd
Domain=[KINGS-WIN] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME
What could be the problem?
I should point out that this Chinese shared folder is located in the D
partition, i.e. the D_Drive shared folder contains the Chinese-named folder.
Obviously this is no problem at all, since SharedDocs is inside C_Drive.
Does anybody do similar thing, but with any other non-European shared folder
name?
Thank you very much!
