I just find a problem by using the Samba (SMB://) and Konqueror.
If i open the “url” “smb://Server/public” is open a Diolog that give me the info that an Folder not exist*.
Normalely i have to check the Server but only on the Unix Maschines i have that problem. Under MS-XP all works fine.
Example*: “smb://Server/public/music” -> not exist but without “s”
“smb://Server/public/musics” -> is the right
in the anther folders and files the thame problem … always the last letter are cut in the overview.
smbclient -L Servername list all fine…
SMB Version on Server/Router: 2.2.12
SMB Version on Client: 3.2.4-5.2-1985-SUSE-CODE11
the SMB Verion on Server is an ipkg-opt packages
can my any one tell whats wrong?

hallo
Ich hab festellen müssen das ich seit OpenSuse 11.1 nicht mehr auf Samba Ordner auf meinem Server/Router zugreifen kann.
Wenn ich mit dem Konqueror die eingabe smb://Servername/public eingben wird mir als erstes eine Fehlermeldung ausgebgen das ein Ordner nicht existert.
Dann wird mir allerdings der inhalt im Konqueror angezeigt. Was dort dann sehr auffällig ist, die Ordner werden als Symbol eine Datei gezeigt mit einem Schloss.
Bei der Bezeichnung der Ordner fehlt immer der letzte Buchstabe. Kann mir nicht erklären woran es liegt.
Über Windows XP gibt es da allerdings keine probleme. Lese und Schreibe zugriffe funktionieren dort ausgezeichnet auch werden alle Ordner und Dateien mit richtigem namen ausgegegen.
Das Problem tritt nur bei Opensuse
ich kann Dir leider auch nicht helfen, sondern nur bestätigen, daß bei mir das gleich auftritt :(. Bei mir werden jedoch immer irgendwelche Dateien anstelle von Ordnern angemeckert.
(I my case the same problems).
thanks for your answer!
I also openend the firewall for SAMBA. This didn’t make any difference to before. I would be also surprised if the firewall has something to do with our german language problem ;).
Did you make anything else, which helped to circumvent the problems with the german umlauts?
Other languages like french, turkish or scandinavian languages should have the same problem. Is somebody using this languages and solved the problem?
Hi. Switch off your firewall for a moment and see if the problem still exists. Then, please post your results again. What exactly are your problems with umlauts? I didn’t encounter any yet.
I switched of the firewall, but it doesn’t change anything.
My problem with the umlauts is, that dolphin/samba says:
Die Datei exisitiert nicht (file not existing):
smb://x.y.z/file with german umlaut
I can open, copy… only files without german umlauts.
Hmm, everything fine here with the programs you mentioned.
Xandersoft said he couldn’t access samba shares with openSUSE11.1 at all. Obviously you can and your problem is the umlaut thing only which is unlikely to be caused by the firewall. I believe that the link posted before didn’t help you in this case. Which version of samba are you running and what exactly is not working except of the umlauts? Does it happen with samba only or also when you work with files on your local disk or a USB stick? You can also copy an umlaut file with ssh or scp (or fish:// in Konqueror) and see if that works. Good luck!
thanks for your answer. The problems with the umlauts occures only with samba shares.
E.g.:the file “NYT Fälschung.pdf” leads to following error when opening the folder with this files: “Die Datei existiert nicht: smb://user@xxx.xxx.xx.xxx/austauschserver/NYT%20F%C3%A4lschung.pdf”
The file name is shown correctly “NYT Fälschung.pdf” but with 0 B. If I try to open this files, I’am getting the answer: “Die Datei oder der Ordner smb://root@134.169.72.166/austauschserver/NYT Fälschung.pdf existiert nicht.”
Using opensuse 11.0 and KDE3 this problem doesn’t occur.
Hi.
You can try copying an umlaut file to your computer with “smbget smb://x.y.z/file”. The file should be downloaded to your home folder. If it works your problem may be related to KDE, if it doesn’t it may be samba.
As I mentioned, I don’t have that problem here (openSUSE 11.1 64-bit, samba 3.2.4-5.2-1985-SUSE-CODE11, KDE 3.5.10 and some KDE4 apps like Dolphin 1.1.80), so I had a look on KDE bugs and only found something very very old: Bug 50270 files and dirs with german umlauts are not displayed with smb://. That link won’t help you I guess but I post it anyway, you never know…
p.s.: You can find a great introduction to samba on openSUSE here: Linux HOWTOs and Tutorials: Suse Linux 10.0, 10.1 openSUSE 10.2, 10.3, 11.0, 11.1.
Good luck!
I see you are using KDE3, I’am using KDE4 (Opensuse 11.1, 32bit, KDE4.1.3, Samba 3.2.6-0.3.1 from opensuse update repository).
Now I tried KDE3 Konqueror:
When I’am using Konqueror (KDE3) (You have to install kdebase3-samba), I have not problems with the umlauts :).
Therefore, the german umlaut problem is a “feature” of KDE4 (KDE4.1.3).
Greetings
Michael
P.S.: This is second case, that I have to use KDE3 applications because KDE4 applications are not working (Bluetooth, SMB). In the future if something is not working, I will try first the corresponding KDE3 application.
