Hello again, Sorry for the long time to reply.I've been going around on how to do this. I set up Wireshark and saw what the server was transmitting. However I'm not really sure about what I should send here.
Anyway I did a "ls" on a dir with a file named "Coleção", and wireshar captured "cole \247 \243o". I send a few frames from tcpdump where that happens.
How can I see if my distro defaults to UTF-8 on the client? I'm using: Linux kernel 3.2.0-4-amd64 (Debian Wheezy) mount.cifs version: 5.5 Thanks in advance. On 22/09/2014 04:28, Steve French wrote:
This seems strange because modern Linux distributions should map UCS-2 (16 bit Unicode characters which cifs servers like Windows and Samba send over the wire) fine to UTF-8 which is the typical default one for local. Does you distro not default to UTF-8 on the client? Would be helpful to see a wire trace (ethereal or tcpdump) and make sure the server is sending UCS-2 (Unicode) on the wire.

I have a router (that I got from my ISP) which allows the connection of a pen/HDD by USB. That pen is shared on the network as a Windows Share folder. In Windows 7 I can see all the files name correctly, but when I mount the drive in Linux, with the command: mount -t cifs //<local share ip-address>/<shared-folder> --verbose -o user=user,pass="",uid=1000,gid=1000 (there is no password) All file names with special characters (like Çãõé...) have a question mark in place of the accented character and I can't open the file or folder, as any command responds the file doesn't exist. This happens in dolphin, thunar and in the command line with simple commands like cat. I tried adding the following option without success iocharset=utf-8 iocharset=utf-8,codepage=cp437 iocharset=utf-8,codepage=cp850 iocharset=iso8859-1 This also happens if I access the share from my android device, so I was convinced it was a problem related to old firmware (from the router). However, recently I connected to the drive using smbclient and the file names appeared correctly. I would like to mount this share folder at fstab, and so smbclient is not a good solution. I'm using: Linux kernel 3.2.0-4-amd64 (Debian Wheezy) mount.cifs version: 5.5 And I get this information from smbclient -L <local share ip address>: (smbclient version 4.1.11-Debian) Server=[Samba 2.2.12] So. Is there something else I can try?
