How would I check this?

This server is Solaris 9 with the client at 5.5.0.6.

TSM shows the fileysystem types are UFS and NFS?

First things first. You've probably done this already, but have you
checked for Unicode compatibility within each filesystem definition in the
TSM server?

in filenames

There must be someone out here who can help with backing up systems that
contain filenames that are considered "illegal" such as with
parens/quotes/dquotes, not to mention foreigh character sets,  in the file
names.

I have more than 2-servers that report hundreds of "Object name contains
illegal characters" on a daily basis and I am getting tired of seeing
these errors and would like to resolve them.

ARISTOTLE3.VCU.EDU : ANE4042E Object name
'/usr/local/blackboard/content/vi/bb_bb60/courses/1/ENGL-303-904-2006Summer/db/_967754_1/blackboard_learning_systemT_(release_6).txt'
contains one or more unrecognized characters and is not valid. (SESSION:
43803)

How do you handle these?

These are Linux/Solaris systems and have fairly current clients.
