Hello List,

does anyone know how to join a SAMBA File Server in a domain that contains a "Umlaut" such as ü or ö?

What I did:

On the NT server added the computer sambaserv.
On the Samba server joined the domain: smbpasswd -j drüber -r NTSERV

The Samba Server generated a .mac file with the Umlaut: DRÜBER.SAMBASERV.mac

However, the computer doe not appear in network neighbourhood. It appears somewhere with strange characters in place of the Umlaut.

In smb.conf the entry is 

workgroup=DRÜBER

Any idea but to change the domainname?

Thanks a lot
Piet
