Jeremy,
Can you give some more high-level detail on this? Does it affect NetBIOS
naming as well?
I note, for example, that W/95 will allow extended characters (o-umlaut,
a-acute, etc.) but that their octal values to not match the latin-1 set
I'm used to on my Linux and BSD boxes. I assume from your message that
there is a mapping that can/should be done.
Point me to docs???
