[Samba] kanji characters in filenames are not being translated properly?

[Andrew Dibble]

greetings samba wizards,

i am having a problem configuring Samba to accept kanji characters in
filenames.  i have tried the latest samba 2.2.4 and samba 2.2.2-ja (from
samba.gr.jp) and both exhibit the same behavior.  i have a windows 2000
desktop client (although in the final configuration there will be a mix of
98/nt/2k machines) with japanese language support installed.  i didn't know
how to otherwise create a file with a kanji filename (i'm an english speaker
with nearly no japanese familiarity) so i switched my desktop to japanese
and made a shortcut to a control panel (the "regional options" control to be
exact) on my desktop.  i switched my language back to english, logged out
and back in and then tried copying the file  (which still had a kanji
filename) to my Samba server.  it copied, but the filename showed up as
"????" when it was done copying (well, first it showed up as "~07" but then
i turned off "mangled names" in smb.conf).  the filename on the linux box is
just ????.lnk, but i wrote a quick perl script to convert the filenames to
octal and the ?'s are 036.  this happens no matter which coding system i use
(i have tried euc, hex, and sjis).  however, when i copy the same file to a
windows 2000 fileserver, it shows up as kanji characters.

here is my config file:

[global]
        log file = /var/log/smbd.log
        debug level = 65535
        workgroup = SCALE8
        netbios name = smc1
        interfaces = 10.0.0.102 10.0.0.88
        max smbd processes = 0
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=65536
        security = share
        encrypt passwords = Yes
        oplocks = false
        client code page = 932
        coding system = SJIS
        mangled names = no

[tmp]
        path = /tmp
        writeable = yes
        guest ok = yes

i have dug through the mailing list archives and all the howtos i could find
and haven't seen this problem.  can anyone help me?  i am not on this list
so please reply to me directly..

thanks in advance,
