tlug: Samba and FAT32(VFAT) with Japanese file names

["Yasuaki Kudo" <yasu@example.com>]

I've partitioned my japanese windows 98 notebook computer into FAT32(VFAT) &
EXT2

Win98 Japanese resides on FAT32
Mandrake 7.0 English on EXT2

I wanted to make the entire FAT32 partition accessible from other Japanese
windows machines so I can make a full backup of it.

So I setup samba.   But all the Japanese file names got MOJIBAKE'ed

I removed the default samba and installed the Japanized Samba from
samba.gr.jp

It complains that libreadline.so.3 refers to the undefined BC or something
and doesn't run.

Do you think all this will be solved If I install some Japanese Linux
distribution?
Is there any quick fix I can do on top of my Mandrake Linux?

Many thanks in advance,
Yasu
