Problem creating dirs with non-ASCII characters

[Michael Drüing]

Hi,
 
today I decided to check out samba4 again. However I'm running into some problems when trying to create directories which contain non-ASCII characters like ä,ö,ü,ß (pretty common here in Germany ;-)

I created two directories "fooäo" and "bar ß baz" from Windows and get the following log entries:

afterwards, these directories can't be deleted anymore and have to be removed through ssh.

The strange thing is that it works for some non-ASCII names, like "fooäöü" or "fooä" but not for others (like those above). I also tried it with various other european characters like ç or ô, and with various japanese unicode directory names, but it seems they work fine.
