Japanese filename problem

I have set up Samba 2.2.1a on a RH Linux 7.1 (english) machine. The problem 
I have is that the clients are all japanese OS windows machines (95, 98, and 
2000). When clients try and drag or create files/folders on the samba share 
that have japanes characters the names get garbled or messed up in some way.

I have added the followinf to smb.conf but it did not help:

[global]

client code page = 932
codingsystem = EUC

My locale is:

[root at linux bin]# locale
LANG=en
LC_CTYPE="en"
LC_NUMERIC="en"
LC_TIME="en"
LC_COLLATE="en"
LC_MONETARY="en"
LC_MESSAGES="en"
LC_PAPER="en"
LC_NAME="en"
LC_ADDRESS="en"
LC_TELEPHONE="en"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en"
LC_ALL=

Can anyone tell me how to enable japanese support *and* keeping my Linux 
running in english (I can't read japanese).

Thanks!

JC
