Hi!
I'm sharing all my stuff on my server using the samba protocol to my clients (all windows). Everything works just fine (love linux) but for some reason a couple of folders have weird names in windows. A simple file search on the windows client results in 0 results due the incorrect filename.
Here's a typical example:
filename on my server (linux): The Hurt Locker Soundtrack
filename on my windows 7 box (samba): MOTD5J~B
What's going on here exactly, why the cryptic name?
samba config (linux server):
