Hmmmm, my wife is a Francophone, so most of her 5000+ songs will have to be converted. At this point I may be better off re-formatting the drive back to NTFS, create a share and add the users and permissions. Considering that most of her current and future docs will have French names, I might have to go this route. I was hoping that there was some magic command that I could type at the command line that would convert the EXT4 drive to UTF16. Oh well, part of the learning process.
