[Samba] AutoCAD file names UPPER CASE on samba

[Roberto João Lopes Garcia]

Pete

Just more 2 things to try,

1 - upgrade your samba, I´m using 2.2.3a in Linux, and also in Solaris 2.4.1
2 - try to add the follow in your smb.conf

  client code page = 850

  character set = iso8859-1

or what is correct to you.
