<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>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Files</title>
<para><command>codepage_def.<codepage></command></para>
<para>These are the input (text) codepage files provided in the
Samba <filename>source/codepages</filename> directory.</para>
<para>A text codepage definition file consists of multiple lines
containing four fields. These fields are:</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para><command>lower</command>: which is the
(hex) lower case character mapped on this line.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem><para><command>upper</command>: which is the (hex)
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.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para><command>map lower to upper</command> 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.
</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para><command>codepage.<codepage></command> - These are the
output (binary) codepage files produced and placed in the Samba
destination <filename>lib/codepage</filename> directory. </para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<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>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>VERSION</title>
<para>This man page is correct for version 2.2 of
the Samba suite.</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>
