[Samba] No share-names longer than 12 characters...

Hi all,

I have the problem that I cannot see Windows shares
with names longer than 12 characters. Since the dos-filename-format
8.3 sums up to 12 characters (including the dot) I assume that
it has something to do with name mangling or filename conversion.
But I could not find a Samba option for hiding files longer than
"8.3"-length that I could switch off...

Thank you for your help

Jan
