umlaut-patch


Hi,

I suddenly found out that the NT function GetFileSecurity() failes,
if the filename contains german umlauts. This will apparently happen
in other native NT versions as well. So I have patched get_file_owner()
and get_file_group() which historically use this function. they will
use the ReadSD() function from security.cc now.

Corinna


ChangeLog:
==========

Mon Jan 10 01:11:00 2000  Corinna Vinschen  <corinna@vinschen.de>

	* fhandler.cc (get_file_owner): Use of ReadSD() instead of
	GetFileSecurity().
	(get_file_group): Ditto.
