SUMMARY: samba translate dos to unix files

Thanks for all the replies - we already had used dos2unix on the files, but
couldn't work out why the problem was reoccurring.  Found out that the
problem was being caused by the Version Control software being used.  We
have VSS on one server, which doesnt make any changes to the files when
checked in or out, however when we set up a system using PVCS Version
Manager, the "translate" attribute was left on, and this was putting ^Ms
into the files when it created the archive.  So we're going to switch off
this attribute, check everything out & run dos2unix, and check it back in
again.

Thanks again,
Jo

Subject: samba translate dos to unix files


Hi guys,
Running Samba 2.2.2 on Solaris 8.  When I transfer NT text files to Unix via
a mapped Samba share, how can I get Samba to strip out the ^M's or carriage
returns from the files on the unix filesystem?
 
Thanks & I will summarise,
