- <title>Samba Codepage Files</title>
-
- <para>A text Samba codepage definition file is a description
- that tells Samba how to map from upper to lower case for
- characters greater than ascii 127 in the specified DOS code page.
- Note that for certain DOS codepages (437 for example) mapping
- from lower to upper case may be non-symmetrical. 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 plain upper case A maps
- to plain lower case a when lower casing a character. </para>
-
- <para>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. </para>
-
- <para>As Samba does not yet use UNICODE (current for Samba version 2.2)
- 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). Text codepage definition sample files
- are provided in the Samba distribution for codepages 437 (USA), 737 (Greek),
- 850 (Western European) 852 (MS-DOS Latin 2), 861 (Icelandic), 866 (Cyrillic),
- 932 (Kanji SJIS), 936 (Simplified Chinese), 949 (Hangul) and 950 (Traditional
- Chinese). Users are encouraged to write text codepage definition files for
- their own code pages and donate them to samba@samba.org. All codepage files
- in the Samba <filename>source/codepages</filename> directory are
- compiled and installed when a <command>'make install'</command>
- command is issued there. </para>
-
- <para>The client codepage used by the <command>smbd</command> server
- is configured using the <command>client code page</command> parameter
- in the <command>smb.conf</command> file. </para>

- <para>These are the input (text) codepage files provided in the

- <para>A text codepage definition file consists of multiple lines

- (hex) lower case character mapped on this line.</para>

- upper case character that the lower case character will map to.
- </para></listitem>
-
- <listitem><para><command>map upper to lower</command> 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.

- <title>Installation</title>
-
- <para>The location of the server and its support files is a
- matter for individual system administrators. The following are
- thus suggestions only. </para>
-
- <para>It is recommended that the <command>make_smbcodepage
- </command> program be installed under the <filename>/usr/local/samba
- </filename> 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! </para>

- <title>AUTHOR</title>
-
- <para>The original Samba software and related utilities
- were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
- by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
- to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</para>
-
- <para>The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer.
- The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another
- excellent piece of Open Source software, available at
- <ulink url="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/">
- ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</ulink>) and updated for the Samba 2.0
- release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
- Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter</para>
