Subject: [9fans] ext2srv understands only 7bit ASCII file names?
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2011 07:15:57 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAEaiYYwJXaF6JApbYXg5nGBuy2ArDBCbgPYW9cmNu176n4f1qQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I have some files on an external ext2 drive that have whitespace and
umlauts (ä, ö) in them. trfs took care of the whitespace. But ext2srv
presents umlauts as a question mark symbol (�) and won't let me access
the file (error: file does not exist).

Where is the problem? These files show correctly in linux.

As a workaround I can certainly boot that other OS and rename the
files. It's just every time I see that penguin I get a rash.
