make_smbcodepage

Name

make_smbcodepage -- construct a codepage file for Samba

Synopsis

make_smbcodepage {c|d} {codepage} {inputfile} {outputfile}

DESCRIPTION

This tool is part of the Samba suite.

make_smbcodepage compiles or de-compiles - codepage files for use with the internationalization features - of Samba 2.2

OPTIONS

c|d

This tells make_smbcodepage - if it is compiling (c) a text format code - page file to binary, or (d) de-compiling - a binary codepage file to text.

codepage

This is the codepage we are processing (a - number, e.g. 850).

inputfile

This is the input file to process. In - the c case this will be a text - codepage definition file such as the ones found in the Samba - source/codepages directory. In - the d case this will be the - binary format codepage definition file normally found in - the lib/codepages directory in the - Samba install directory path.

outputfile

This is the output file to produce.

Samba Codepage Files

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.

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 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 source/codepages directory are - compiled and installed when a 'make install' - command is issued there.

The client codepage used by the smbd server - is configured using the client code page parameter - in the smb.conf file.

Files

codepage_def.<codepage>

These are the input (text) codepage files provided in the - Samba source/codepages directory.

A text codepage definition file consists of multiple lines - containing four fields. These fields are:

codepage.<codepage> - These are the - output (binary) codepage files produced and placed in the Samba - destination lib/codepage directory.

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 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!

VERSION

This man page is correct for version 2.2 of - the Samba suite.

AUTHOR

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.

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 - ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/) and updated for the Samba 2.0 - release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for - Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter
