NAME
       vfscap - CAP encode filenames

SYNOPSIS
       vfs objects = cap

DESCRIPTION
       This VFS module is part of the ssaammbbaa(7) suite.

       CAP  (Columbia  Appletalk  Protocol) encoding is a technique for repre-
       senting non-ASCII filenames in ASCII. The vfscap VFS module translates
       filenames to and from CAP format, allowing users to name files in their
       native encoding.

       CAP encoding is most commonly used in Japanese language environments.

       This module is stackable.

EEXXAAMMPPLLEESS
       On a system using GNU libiconv, use CAP encoding to  support  users  in
       the ShiftJIS locale:


               [global]
            dos charset = CP932
            dos charset = CP932
            vfs objects = cap

       Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team  as  an  Open
       Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
