Yes! I wrote a mail about it, with subj:
[OpenAFS smb server codepage vs. win client cp]
but it was never answered.

The problem:

It seems, the OpenAFS client's smb server use
the iso8859-2 or the win-1250 codepage,
(i don't know exactly witch of them)
and the windows clients use the cp852.
So our country specific characters don't
appear correct in file names.

I know that this problem is ALL in Europe with
iso8859-1 <--> cp850 too.
(e.g: deutsche umlaut)

This problem is the same with 9x- or NT-AFS clients.
What is the solution?

Thanks:
