Mac sees mangled filenames from Linux SAMBA share
- by me2
Certain filenames in my SAMBA shares from Linux are not getting transmitted properly. It's certain files in certain folders and it doesn't affect all folders or all files within a single folder. I can find no discerning pattern to the mangling but hoping that this is a known problem. No amount of reboot, restart, etc. will fix this problem.
The filenames, when they get mangled, all end up in this form:
0JY4B3~H.M4V
0MBS1O~M.M4V
0NKDX9~R.M4V
0O0ZTA~A.M4V
These are MPEG4 files. The extension remains intact.
Any ideas?
