I altered the code to get past the "name is too long" error by changing every reference from coursemap to crsemap. But whenever I try to access a share, I get a website not found error. Is this a smbclient 3.x problem? I'm running Centos and I can't figure out how to install anything past 3.0.33
Thanks for the block, it will be a big help if I can get it to work on my site.

Any updates for 2.3? when I install "name is too long. Limit is 28 chars" error?

I've solved my german umlaut problems at last.
System: Ubuntu 12.04 64bit server. Change your /etc/samba/smb.conf to read:
dos charset = 1255
unix charset = UTF-8
display charset = UTF-8
and inside block configuration set
$smb_cfg->cfgDefaultCharset = 'UTF-8'
Thid did it for me.

Good to see this plugin under new, further development. But where's the place to post /discuss/fix bugs? Tracker lists age-old bugs for the original plugin only...

I was still maintaining it - I hadn't got round to moving it to the new modules page.
