Hello, there are problems syncing files with special charcters in the filename. The special characters in the filename are displayed as a question mark. During synchronization, the rsync tells the file is vanished. Here is the standard output with level 1 verbosity. Higher verbosity levels dont give more informations about the problem. The stat command with this file succeed. file has vanished: "/backupmnt/neef/backup2/Sch?newolf.JPG" sent 60557 bytes received 64 bytes 121242.00 bytes/sec total size is 188702060 speedup is 3112.82 rsync warning: some files vanished before they could be transferred (code 24) at main.c(977) [sender=2.6.9] Is rsync able to sync files with this file? Help would be appreciated, thanks in advance, Benjamin Neef.
