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. +<p><br>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. +<p><br>As Samba does not yet use UNICODE (current for Samba version 2.0) 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 <a href="mailto:samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au"><em>samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au</em></a>. All codepage files in the +Samba <em>source/codepages</em> directory are compiled and installed when a +<em>'make install'</em> command is issued there. +<p><br>The client codepage used by the <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> server is +configured using the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>client code +page</strong></a> parameter in the +<a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf</strong></a> file. +<p><br><a name="FILES"></a> +<h2>FILES</h2> + +<p><br><strong>codepage_def.<codepage></strong> +<p><br>These are the input (text) codepage files provided in the Samba +<em>source/codepages</em> directory. +<p><br>A text codepage definition file consists of multiple lines +containing four fields.

The following are thus suggestions +only. +<p><br>It is recommended that the <strong>make_smbcodepage</strong> program be installed +under the <em>/usr/local/samba</em> hierarchy, in a directory readable by +all, writeable only by root. The program itself should be executable +by all.
