samba - Apr 1998 - Code Page Problem with samba 1.9.18p4?

I am running samba version 1.9.18p4 on a sinix machine (unix svr4).
My NT workstations use the german code page 850.
In earlier versions of samba (1.9.17p2) the character mapping worked
just fine, using

character set = iso8859-1
client code page = 850

in my smb.conf.
Since upgrading to samba 1.9.18p4 this don't work any more.

Is this a known problem?
I tripple-checked my smb.conf entries, so everything should be ok there.

Thank you for your help

Juergen,

	This is a known bug in 1.9.18p4 (and it was
my fault, sorry). Here is the patch that is now
in the master sources and will be in the next patch
release.

Sorry for the problem,

	Jeremy Allison,
	Samba Team.
