[linux-cifs-client] "File name too long" error with long unicode files

[Tomasz Chmielewski]

I have a Windows 2003 server, from which I wanted to backup user profiles.

I mount the share on a Linux server running 2.6.12 kernel like this:

mount.cifs //server/share /mnt/server -o 
ro,username=admin,password=pass,iocharset=utf8


On that share, I have some long directories, which contain about 150 
Cyrillic characters.

It's impossible to copy them, "cp" or "rsync" throw "File name too long" 
error.

Is there a solution for this?
