Description Alain RICHARD 2002-06-07 10:00:01 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:



User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.14; Mac_PowerPC)







Description of problem:



When you use a codepage:maccode.iso8859-1 option in 

/etc/atalk/AppleVolumes.default, the afpd process fail to load the 

translation table maccode.iso8859-1 because it looks to it in the directory







/usr/etc/netatalk/nls







instead of looking for it where it is really installed :







/etc/atalk/nls











Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):











How reproducible:



Always







Steps to Reproduce:



1.specify a codepage:maccode.iso8859-1 in 

/etc/atalk/AppleVolumes.default



2.start netatalk



3.try to connect to the shared folder from a Mac and look at 

/var/log/message for the error







	







Actual Results:  the translation table is not loaded, so european diatrical 

marks are not in sync between MacOS/Linux/Samba.



The filename stored on the share are using the MacOS charset and 

unusable from the Linux or Samba side.







Expected Results:  The filename should be translated to ISO-1 charset in 

order to be shared with the other plateforms







Additional info:







A temporary fix  :







mkdir -p /usr/etc/netatalk



cd /usr/etc/netatalk



ln -s ../../../etc/atalk/nls nls
