reading other languages

[Flemming Bjerke]

I log on a NT-server, but I can't read the danish "Ř" (second buttom to the
right of "L"). How do I solve this problem?

Hi,

Do you see other "special" danish characters ?

For German I've set the following parameters in smb.conf (I believe they
should work for danish too):

.
.
; Options for handling file name case sensitivity and / or preservation
; Case Sensitivity breaks many WfW and Win95 apps
; case sensitive = yes
short preserve case = yes
preserve case = yes
character set = iso8859-1
client code page = 850
.
.
.

The two relevant are "character set" and "client codepage"

List of implemented Codepages :

o Code Page 437 - MS-DOS Latin US
o Code Page 737 - Windows ´95 Greek
o Code Page 850 - MS-DOS Latin 1
o Code Page 852 - MS-DOS Latin 2
o Code Page 861 - MS-DOS Icelandic
o Code Page 866 - MS-DOS Cyrillic
o Code Page 932 - MS-DOS Japanese SJIS
o Code Page 936 - MS-DOS Simplified Chinese
o Code Page 949 - MS-DOS Korean Hangul
o Code Page 950 - MS-DOS Traditional Chinese

For each Codepage you must use a specific characer set. See "man smb.conf"
for details.
