Hi,
I have a problem copying files from a Suse 9.3 box to a CentOS 4.3 box with maintained characters in the file names. They usually have a lot of "åäö" (Swedish) in them and they are replaced by spaces when I copy to the CentOS 4.3 box.
I have tried with nfs and then with Samba and get the same result. I have searched the net and found some suggestions about smbmount options "iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode" but it didn't help.
What I've found out is that I can create file names with åäö from a WindowsXP box through a samba share in the CentOS box, and it also looks correct when I do a 'ls'. The same condition is also true with the Suse box. So, I can from a WindowsXP box copy from the Suse box and then save it on the CentOS box and get correct file names.
Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong? None of the smb.conf on the boxes have any special settings about charsets. The Suse box uses ReiserFS and the CentOS uses ext3.
Thanks, Christian
