Hi all,

I'm having a problem with amanda backing up files across a samba share when they contain certain special characters (namely german umlauts, french accents, some apostrophes, that kind of thing).

If I use tar natively across the mounted share, it converts these characters into their unicode equivalents, but when amdump runs, it reports " (Called name not present) NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND"

Is this a limitation of amanda, or is there something I can change in the configuration that will allow this to work?

Thanks in advance
Matt
