I tried with a blah.txt as a test.

I can't find much on the internet from Apple about this. Nothing in fact. I can't be the only one, but it's beginning to look like it.

Thanks

Are the Mac files using any ILLEGAL Windows characters? The Mac pretty
much allows any character in a filename, as long as it is escaped
properly, while Windows can't handle things like...

? [ ] / \ = + < > : ; " ,

The Mac will pretty much allow any of them to be used in a filename.

I'm trying to copy files to a Samba share that I have set up on a linux debian
machine from a Mac running OS X, using samba 3.0.24.

The Mac complains that there is something wrong with the file name, and then
refuses to copy, and the operation leaves a zero-byte file with the same name on
the samba share.

It lets me log in nicely through the Mac File Finder.

I've just spent a couple of hours searching the net but without any luck at all.
Does anyone know what I should do in this situation?

The samba share works fine from my other linux machine.
