When you mounted the Win2K boxes' share on your Linux box, what encoding did you specify? Try doing: mount //win2kbox/share-name /mnt/win2k-box -o utf8 Then I assume you'd simply copy things from /mnt/win2k-box to /backup-dir every once in a while. > i have added the: > unix charset = UTF-8 > dos charset = UNICODE > display charset = UTF-8 > into my smb.conf file. Right. This tells the SAMBA server that, on the Linux box, all file names are UTF-8. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
