FYI, the 'y+2dots' (y-umlaut) is usually the windows font
character 0xFF.

This probably doesn't help, but usually indicates bad
programming (unterminated strings for example) rather
than actual filenames.

If TSM is reporting y-umlauts instead of filenames, consider
upgrading to the next patch release of the client.

Cheers.

Subject: y+two dots


Hello everyone,

I ve got a question: My backups display error messages that TSM can t
process files or directories which include blanks (for example files in the
IExplore Favourites). The files or directories are represented as the letter
y+two dots.
The problem is related on Novell NetWare TSM-Clients.

Has anyone had the same problem and could you tell me a solution?

Thanks a lot,
T.Strecke
