hi, I use Samba2.2.2 + Amanda 2.4.2p2 to backup NT boxes. I had some troubles when backing up files whose name includes specific french chars, that is, accents. the error message is : ? ERRDOS - ERRbadfile opening remote file <filename> After scanning through a few mail archives, it seems that the trouble comes from "smbclient" or its wrapper "smbtar", with Samba 2.2.2 - the problem seemed not to occur in the 2.2.0 release. "client codepage" is set to 850 (Latin1), but I don't have any "valid chars" set yet. Is it really a bug, or did I miss something into the smb.conf file? If this is a bug, is there any patch somewhere? thanks Pierre ------------------------------------------------- Laboratoire de Planetologie de Grenoble Bat D de Physique - BP53 38041 Grenoble Cedex 9 - FRANCE tel. +33 (0)4.76.51.41.55 fax. +33 (0)4.76.51.41.46 web. http://lpg.obs.ujf-grenoble.fr e-mail.

It's fixed in the current 2.2.3 CVS (available as SAMBA_2_2 tag). Jeremy.
