Description TAKAHASHI Motonobu 2003-09-22 21:00:09 UTC 
If 'unix charset' and 'dos charset' parameters are different 
and non-ASCII characters are used in smb.conf, 
the "view" page on SWAT will be broken.

Because "view" page calls lp_dump() in swat.c:394, lp_dump() always 
displays the contents of smb.conf without charset conversion (this means
always to display with 'unix chatset').
Comment 1 TAKAHASHI Motonobu 2003-09-22 22:41:04 UTC 
Sorry 

>If 'unix charset' and 'dos charset' parameters are different 
 ** not 'dos chatset' but 'display charset' **

Currently 'display charset' parameter must be same the encoding
which msg file is encoded with. In Japanese this means 'display
charset' must be set to 'CP932'.

So if we set "unix charset' as 'EUCJP-MS', this problem will occur.
