I've been working on a fix for this and related problems with path
names containing "strange" characters. The intent is to allow
any character other than '/' or NULL in any file name used
in amanda. (I.E. POSIX standard path names).
I'm looking at a couple of days to finish testing.
Are you in a hurry?
Regards,
John Franks

Subject: Problems with spaces in include statement?
I have a DLE that looks like the following:
server /mnt/image_New_Folder /mnt/image {
include "./New Folder"
ghost-image-tar
} -1 local
Actually - I have several DLEs I want to create that have spaces in their
names. When I run an amcheck I get the following back for every DLE that has
an include statement with a space in the name:
ERROR: server: [No include for '/mnt/image_New_Folder']
This directory is shared over samba and the windows users will happily create
directories with spaces in their names. I need to seperate them like this
because they are all large directories. I've tried escaping the space "New\
Folder" but the result is the same. Any suggestions on how I can get around
this?
Chris
