+.SS client code page (G)
+Currently (Samba 1.9.17 and above) this may be set to one of two
+values, 850 or 437. It specifies the base DOS code page that the
+clients accessing Samba are using. To determine this, open a DOS
+command prompt and type the command "chcp". This will output the
+code page. The default for USA MS-DOS, Windows 95, and Windows NT
+releases is code page 437. The default for western european
+releases of the above operating systems is code page 850.
+
+This parameter co-operates with the "valid chars" parameter in
+determining what characters are valid in filenames and how
+capitalization is done. It has been added as a convenience for
+clients whose code page is either 437 or 850 so a convoluted
+"valid chars" string does not have to be determined. If you
+set both this parameter and the "valid chars" parameter the
+"client code page" parameter MUST be set before the "valid chars"
+in the smb.conf file. The "valid chars" string will then augment
+the character settings in the "client code page" parameter.
+
+If "client code page" is set to a value other than 850 or 437
+it will default to 850.
+
+See also : "valid chars".

.SS comment (S)
This is a text field that is seen when a client does a net view to
list what shares are available. It will also be used when browsing is
The last two examples above actually add two characters, and alter
the uppercase and lowercase mappings appropriately.
+Note that you MUST specify this parameter after the "client code page"
+parameter if you have both set. If "client code page" is set after
+the "valid chars" parameter the "valid chars" settings will be
+overwritten.
+
+See also the "client code page" parameter.
