This is a re-post, I am getting desperate because my work

too strange to move to another OS for such a tiny problem! Could
what I mention below be a bug of FreeBSD mount_smbfs?
Using FreeBSD 6.1, I can mount a windows share but the Chinese
characters in folder and file names look junk text to me. Charset
conversion (-E parameter of mount_smbfs) do not work at all. If I do
ls(1) to a directory that has Chinese character in its name, the process
'ls' will take about 80% CPU resource and hang there forever. Ctrl+C
cannot stop it (kill -KILL can). If I run other command that read any
file in the directory that has Chinese character in its name, that
application hangs there taking about 80% CPU resource too.
This process is better illustrated with this screenshot:
gopher://sdf.lonestar.org/I/users/weiwu/mount_chinese_smbshare.png
In the screenshot, I do have mounted the share with -E parameter which
should convert GB18030 folder names to UTF-8 but
actually no conversion is done (see the ls | iconv which shows what it
should be looking like if the conversion is done)
Actually I have never successfully done charset conversion with
mount_smbfs, what did I do wrong?
weiwu,
One thing comes to mind: Try your question here:
http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/FAQ/
and here:
http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/
and here:
http://us1.samba.org/samba/archives.html
and here:
https://lists.samba.org/mailman/
Your question is specific to samba, and probably not related to
FreeBSD-specific issues.

P.S. I note that the hosts in the links above are mostly "us1." That's
probably something to do with the language specification on my system, but
may be different for you. Check out www.samba.org for better links.
Your issue has to deal with locales and character sets. I think what
you want to do is look into mount(8) and mount_smbfs(8), if you use
fstab to specify mounts for the SMB share instead of smbmount.
A flag that sort of jumped out at me in mount_smbfs(8) was...
-E cs1:cs2
Specifies local (cs1) and server's (cs2) character sets.
Cheers,
-Garrett
