unix charset

Specifies the charset the unix machine Samba runs on uses. Samba needs to know this in order to be able to convert text to the charsets other SMB clients use.
This is also the charset Samba will use when specifying arguments to scripts that it invokes.

Example: ASCII

Supported on: At least Microsoft Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 family
