Description Pierre Carrier 2010-11-04 11:29:40 UTC

Description of problem:

With unix charset = ISO8859-15:
- accentued characters (éééèèùùàà...) are correctly displayed in explorer.exe
- wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g are not functional

With unixcharset = UTF-8
- accentued characters are not correctly displayed (eg: "é"=>"_")
- wbinfo becomes fonctional

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
samba 3.5.4-0.68.el5

How reproducible:
Apparently 100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use in smb.conf:
[global]
  unix charset = UTF-8
  display charset = UTF-8

1. Have filenames with ISO-8859-15 accents
2. Look at the directory contents in explorer.exe
  
Actual results:
- Incorrect filenames appear
- In the Samba logs, one can see:
(*) [2010/11/04 11:24:01.310367,  1] ../librpc/ndr/ndr.c:395(ndr_pull_error)
  ndr_pull_error(1): String terminator not present or outside string boundaries

Expected results:
- Having both wbinfo working and filenames visible
