 |
|
I'm running an Opteron Samba server (ver samba-3.0.22-r3). That's what I get when I type smbstatus
| Code: | serv5 samba # smbstatus
init_iconv: Conversion from UTF-16LE to 1255 not supported
init_iconv: Attempting to replace with conversion from UTF-16LE to ASCII
init_iconv: Conversion from UTF-8 to 1255 not supported
init_iconv: Attempting to replace with conversion from ASCII to ASCII
init_iconv: Conversion from UTF-8 to 1255 not supported
init_iconv: Attempting to replace with conversion from ASCII to ASCII
init_iconv: Conversion from 1255 to UTF-16LE not supported

Something wrong with init_iconv?
| Code: | [ebuild R ] net-fs/samba-3.0.22-r3 USE="cups pam python readline syslog -acl -async -automount -doc -examples -kerberos -ldap -ldapsam -libclamav -mysql -oav -postgres -quotas (-selinux) -swat -winbind -xml" 0 kB
[ebuild R ] virtual/libiconv-0 0 kB

I'm not running on an Opteron. But I am running on an Athalon 64 x2, which is similar. Anyway, I'm not experiencing this problem when I do run Samba on my machine (Did some testing to make sure).
I did some searching on Google and found this:
http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2004-August/090545.html
It's about a Solaris install, but contains the exact error.
Anyway, from what I gathered, someone please correct me if I'm wrong, iconv is provided by glibc. Maybe it's just a matter of you re-emerging some packages like gettext, glibc, and samba. Or possibly a use flag like nls which is in gettext and glibc.
Hope this helps...  |

I did already re-emerge gettext, libiconv, samba and glibc. Also, I have done a complete --newuse emerge and a revdep-rebuild.
No changes.

I have done further research. It only leaves two possibilities:1. glibc does not have your locales properly installed and/or configured
2. samba is not configured correctly. Could you:1. check in /usr/lib64/gconv to verify that CP1255.so, UTF-16.so, and UNICODE.so files exist.
2. post your smb.conf file
Thanks... |

Yep. I have removed dos charset 1255 and now I get no more conversion errors.
Thank you VERY much for your help, Will.
