[Samba] CIFS mount with non-ascii (UTF8) password is not working

I am able to mount same path when password is in ascii.

But it gives problem when it is non-ascii.

&gt;Hallo, Katariya,

&gt;

&gt;Du meintest am 24.03.11:

&gt;

&gt;&gt; I have French CIFS server.

&gt;

&gt;[...]

&gt;

&gt;&gt; mount -t cifs //MACHINE/DatasetFIGS_ùÉ??????ÄÑ£??¬&amp;nbsp; /tmp/rahul

&gt;&gt; -o user=ùù,password=ùù,domain=eKKDr mount error 13 = Permission

&gt;&gt; denied Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)

&gt;&gt; &amp;nbsp;

&gt;

&gt;&gt; Does CIFS supports non-ascii password?

&gt;

&gt;Maybe it's not only a problem with the password; the path seems to be 

&gt;non-ASCII too.

&gt;

&gt;And non-ASCII has many representations - not only UTF-8.

&gt;

&gt;Viele Gruesse!

&gt;Helmut
