[Samba] strange mangled name

Hello,

In samba 2.x, I had no problem with DOS name mangling. 

For example, if a file named 0613abcdefg.txt, it will be mangled as 0613ab~1.txt. It is very easy to know which file it is.

But now in Samba 3, the mangled name is very strange, "0AFADF~1.txt", I have no clue to know which file it is.

But I didn't see any configuration parameters to deal with this problem, anyone can do me a favour?

(My samba3 is a precompiled samba3 coming with RedHat Enterprise Linux v3.)

Thanks.

Jeremy
