Hi,
We are using MacOSX (10.3.9) in a mixed environment (Incl.
Solaris,Linux,Windows Machines). Our homes are exported from a Solaris
server using NFS. While this works quite well, the decomposed Unicode
charset is an obstacle for users working on multiple operating systems
since the common standard would be precomposed Unicode. Consequently,
I
tried determine whether NFS-Mounts support charset conversion,
in the way HFS or SMB mounts do. So far my search revealed nothing.
Have you read <http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1173.html>?
I'm aware of the problem with NFS (decomposed/precomposed). What I'm
looking for is
a way to convert the charset during an NFS access, so the server sees
charset X while
a MacOSX client still can deal with decomposed Unicode.
As far as I've seen, NFS does not have such a conversion builtin. Could
this be
implemented in form of a filter file system?
(as in http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1242.html)
Regards,
Anton
