rsync - Jul 2007 - rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23)

Hi,

I installed a Backup server under Debian Etch.
When a client tries to backup files with a long path I receive this 
error message:

skipping overly long name: Documents and 
settings\\Amministratore\\Desktop/codice da
PC-6/sorgenti/sorgenti_codice_2.15.0_2006-04-04/codice_2.15.0-060404/codice_2.15.0-060404/codiceServerEJB/ejbModule/delfi/codice/archiviazione/EJSRemoteStatelessMasterizzazioneCtrSrvHome_771fb928.java

Documents and Settings\\Amministratore\\Desktop/
rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "/Documents and 
Settings\Amministratore\Desktop" (in pc-5) failed: Invalid argument (22)
*** Skipping everything below this failed directory ***

sent 66340 bytes  received 22 bytes  574.56 bytes/sec
total size is 5531245572  speedup is 83349.59
rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(791)

and it doesn't backup all "Document and Settings" directory !!!
I use NasBackup with cgwin to use rsync with windows and I use this 
command to run rsync :
rsync.exe -r -t -b --backup-dir=previous_version  --compress 
--exclude="*.bak"  --delete -v "/cygdrive/D/[Directory]"
pc-5@server::pc-5/

How can I fix it ?
Thank's in advance.

That's not what it said.  The name of the directory is apparently this:

Documents and Settings\Amministratore\Desktop

So, it looks like you've got at least one strangely named directory
there (since it includes backslash characters).

The "Invalid argument" error is from your OS.  It most likely means
that
the OS doesn't allow a backslash in the name of a file.

You right, I belive that the guilty is NasBackup, because I add these path with
NasBackup GUI interface.
I hope to find a solution...
