That should work correctly.

But, you may wish to wait for Samba 3.0. which supports UTF-9 instead,
because you'll probably have to do the whole thing again.

| Hi, samba-users,

| IŽm running Samba 2.2.8a at my customerŽs site.

| files back.
|
| Anything special to know or care about in this case??
|
| Thanx for your help.
