Avoiding 8.3 FileNames when CD Burning

Hello all,

I've got a Fedora machine in the field that is burning CDs -- the file names are all appearing with 8.3-format file names when the CD is loaded into a Windows box.  The entire file name shows just fine when one mounts the CD in Linux.

I have Rock Ridge extensions enabled.   Here's my burn command:

mkisofs -R my_directory | cdrecord -v speed=8 dev=0,0,0 -

Can anyone tell me what I'm missing?

Thanks in advance,
Allan
