hi

i am trying to do the following:

there is a samba server in the university. i have ftp access to it (no smb access)
the hebrew file names are of course wrong (as their samba does not have the hebrew patch)
i solved it by mirrorring the ftp site via wget, and then accessing it localy via samba.


the problems are:
1. wget conversts some of the filename chars to %<aascii in hex> ( i.e. %20 for space char)
2. i need a computer running samba for this.


i could have got arounds 1. by fixing the filenames using a script after doanload, but it wouldn't work when i try to update my copy of the mirror.
i could also hold symlinks with fixed names, but this is mor difficult as i have to update new symlinks when new files apear...



i really only want to have access to the correct hebrew names on my laptop, running windows ( i have also cygwin on it).
i prefer not to use a samba server ...


any idea ?
erez.
