Note that for certain DOS codepages -(437 for example) mapping from lower to upper case may be asynchronous. -For example, in code page 437 lower case a acute maps to a plain upper -case A when going from lower to upper case, but maps from plain upper -case A to plain lower case a when lower casing a character. - -A binary Samba codepage definition file is a binary representation -of the same information, including a value that specifies what codepage -this file is describing. - -As Samba does not yet use UNICODE (current for Samba version 1.9.18) -you must specify the client code page that your DOS and Windows clients -are using if you wish to have case insensitivity done correctly for -your particular language. The default codepage Samba uses is 850 -(Western European). Ascii codepage definition sample files are provided -in the Samba distribution for codepages 437 (USA), 850 (Western European) -852 (MS-DOS Latin 2) and 932 (Kanji SJIS). Users are encouraged to -write ascii codepage definition files for their own code pages and -donate them to samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au. All codepage files in the -Samba source directory are compiled and installed when a 'make install' -command is issued there. - -An ascii codepage definition file consists of multiple lines containing -four fields. These fields are : -.B lower -which is the (hex) lower case character mapped on this line. -.B upper -which is the (hex) upper case character that the lower case character -will map to. -.B map upper to lower -which is a boolean value (put either True or False here) which tells -Samba if it is to map the given upper case character to the given -lower case character when lower casing a filename. -.B map lower to upper -which is a boolean value (put either True or False here) which tells -Samba if it is to map the given lower case character to the given -upper case character when upper casing a filename. - -.SH OPTIONS -.I c|d - -.RS 3 -This tells make_smbcodepage if it is compiling (c) an ascii code page file -to binary, or de-compiling a binary codepage file to ascii. -.RE - -.I codepage - -.RS 3 -This is the codepage we are processing (a number, eg. 850) -.RE - -.I inputfile - -.RS 3 -This is the input file to process. -.RE - -.I outputfile - -.RS 3 -This is the output file to produce. -.RE - -.SH FILES -.B codepage_def.<codepage> -.RS 3 -These are the input (ascii) codepage files provided in the Samba -source/ directory. -.RE -.SH FILES -.B codepage.<codepage> -.RS 3 -These are the output (binary) codepage files produced and placed in the Samba -destination lib/codepage/ directory. -.RE - -.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES -Not applicable. -.SH INSTALLATION -The location of the server and its support files is a matter for individual -system administrators. The following are thus suggestions only. - -It is recommended that the -.B make_smbcodepage -program be installed under the /usr/local/samba hierarchy, in a directory readable -by all, writeable only by root. The program itself should be executable by all. -The program should NOT be setuid or setgid! -.SH VERSION -This man page is (mostly) correct for version 1.9.18 of the Samba suite, plus some -of the recent patches to it. These notes will necessarily lag behind -development of the software, so it is possible that your version of -the program has extensions or parameter semantics that differ from or are not -covered by this man page. Please notify these to the address below for -rectification. -.SH SEE ALSO -.BR smb.conf (5), -.BR smbd (8) - -.SH BUGS -None known. -.SH CREDITS -The -.B make_smbcodepage -program was written by Jeremy Allison (jallison@whistle.com) as part of the -Internationalization effort of the Samba software. - -Please send bug reports to samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au. - -See -.BR samba (7) -for a full list of contributors and details on how to -submit bug reports, comments etc. |
