Hi - Just upgraded to MacOS X Server 10.2.  TSM will not back up
folders whose owners have more than 16 characters in their shortname.
The program just fails (crashes without even generating a crashlog -
just disappears).  Our scheduled backups are the same - the scheduler
just dies, and we get an 'in progress' in the morning report.  The log
shows thew last files that were backed up, then nothing.

This is 100% reproducible.

Anybody run into this one before?
