Odd characters with CIFS network share

[dbruns]

I've got a few network shares on an EMC celerra SAN that I'm trying to mount on my ubuntu development server.

Here are my fstab lines on my UBUNTU server:
//10.1.1.106/Artwork /mnt/artwork smbfs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777,iocha rset=utf8,mapchars 0 0
//10.1.1.106/WebFiles /mnt/webfiles smbfs defaults,username=user%PASSWORD,workgroup=company, file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,rw 0 0
This is what happens:

$ sudo mount /mnt/webfiles/ && ls /mnt/webfiles
_~1 1.ai C~1 ?Ma r

$ sudo mount /mnt/artwork/ && ls /mnt/artwork
ㅋᘘ�㓓 F~1 P ᓣ侣瞔旼 �梮톄?

On my SUSE production server this is what I have in my fstab:

//10.1.1.106/WebFiles /mnt/webfiles smbfs defaults,username=user%Password,workgroup=company, dmask=777,fmask=777,rw 0 0

which results in:

>ls /mnt/webfiles
logs sales_attachments tmp WebBackup

I've tried different iocharsets, mapchars, leaving those options out and a number of other options, but the network shares I mount on my ubuntu server have all those weird characters.


Any help on this is much appreciated.

Is the locale different on the Ubuntu development server and the SUSE production server?

[dbruns]

echo $LANG
en_US.UTF-8

for both

Also same for:

$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

it may be worth noting that i'm using an older version of SLES that is still using smbfs, but that may not make a difference.

Also, I've tried to mount the artwork directory from the SUSE box and everything worked fine.

This is sooo frustrating.

I created an NFS share and it seems to work just fine. It would be nice to get the CIFS shares working though.
