[Samba] samba 3.0.28, directory name is garbled.
Environment: Sun Solaris 5.10 Samba 3.0.28 (latest SUN supported version) We are currently running Totalnet Advanced Server TAS (for cifs services) but plan to replace this with SAMBA. Has anyone see this problem? I am opening a ticket with SUN also. from the UNIX command line cd /export/userdir/project dir/sub dir /file-excel.xls ( yes, there are spaces in the directory names and a trailing space .) From a PC client, XP sp2 TAS mapping: \userdir\project dir\sub dir\file-excel.xls [ note that the PC does not show the trailing space but allows access to the directory ] SAMBA mapping: \userdir\project dir\2D8YHS~L\file-excel.xls [ note that the PC shows a garbled directory name but allows access to the directory below] At some point we may go to open source to get the latest version, but, management wants to stay on SUN supported versions if possible.

Trailing spaces are illegal in a Windows name so Samba has to mangle them (it does the same for names with a ':' also).

Fixed, from the O'Reilly manual Chapter 5.4.2 Mangling Options add mangled names = no ( works in the per share space, not sure about the global space ) and all works fine (so far anyway) [fu] comment = %U's Home Directory path = /home/%U read only = No acl check permissions = Yes force security mode = 0775 force directory mode = 0775 inherit permissions = Yes inherit acls = Yes map acl inherit = Yes case sensitive = No veto files = /.tnatr:*/ browseable = Yes vfs objects = zfsacl mangled names = no On Mon, Aug 18, 2008 at 11:19:12AM -0700, Evans, Bill wrote: Environment: Sun Solaris 5.10 Samba 3.0.28 (latest SUN supported version) We are currently running Totalnet Advanced Server TAS (for cifs services) but plan to replace this with SAMBA.
