Charsetproblems

Hi, I'm using SuSE 8.2 with Samba 3. My problem is related to this. As SuSE does not have support for Norwegian, My lang settings have been set to en_US, something that is ok with me. The problems start when I try to use samba to copy files from a Win2K server. The server connects to a sambashare and I copy the files over. However, when I then access the files on the SuSE machine I tet ? and ??s for the Norwegian caracters æøå. Does anyone have any hits for how this should be fixed? I would be very happy for any input. cheers, Tarjei
