Since the in-system "mount_smbfs" does not support unicode file names, the only usable solution for mounting samba shares in FreeBSD seems to be the fusefs-smbnetfs port.
Even if this port seems to be outdated it works pretty well and has quite good performance.
However there is a problem with smbnetfs that I am unable to solve. After mounting the desired samba filesystem on a target mount point, moving into its folders with the terminal/shell works but the "pwd" command fails when inside the networked folders, always with this error:
As this command fails, programs using getcwd() always fail to read the samba file system. Midnight commander is an example, as when I try to enter in the network share, it points me back to "root /".
I have tried experimenting with all of the smbnetfs mount options (especially those that have something to do with inodes) but nothing worked.
I am searching for a solution for this.
Thanks
