>Samba Unicode Map Files</H2
><P
> A text Samba unicode map file is a description that tells Samba
how to map characters from a specified DOS code page or UNIX character
set to 16 bit unicode.
</P
><P
>A binary Samba unicode map file is a binary representation
of the same information, including a value that specifies what
codepage or UNIX character set this file is describing.

>Installation</H2
><P
> The location of the server and its support files is a matter
for individual system administrators. The following are thus
suggestions only.
</P
><P
> It is recommended that the <B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>make_unicodemap</B
>
program be installed under the
<TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>$prefix/samba</TT
> hierarchy,
in a directory readable by all, writeable only by root. The
program itself should be executable by all. The program
should NOT be setuid or setgid!

>The original Samba software and related utilities
were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar

The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another
excellent piece of Open Source software, available at
