    international character support in samba

    I'm currently running samba on a Debian server. There seems to be a problem with international character support. Whenever I copy files with Cyrillic names from Windows XP to the server, there's an error. I tried fixing this by configuring all locales, but it still doesn't work. How can I configure this in samba?

    Here's another thing I tried.
    In the smb.conf file I added this below the [global] section:

    dos charset = 866
    unix charset = UTF-8
    display charset = UTF-8

    But...still no work
