[Samba] Question: backslash in file name

Hi

I have a applikation (Oracle DB) which writes files with a backslash in names, i.e:

Log\GEN_INPUT_BASED_2899.csv

not a problem for Unix but Samba present it to Windows users as:

L2CYOP~L.CSV

Is there any way _in Samba_ to strip this 'Log\' and give back to user the GEN_INPUT_BASED_2899.csv part.

Tha appliance (EMC Celerra) I've just migrated data from, was magicaly doing this.

Thanks for your time and any hint.

Regards,
Chris
