In regard to: Re: [Networker] Pool Names Case Issue, Darren Dunham said (at...:

I am currently using NetWorker v.7.1.1 on an HPUX 11i server, and as far
back as v.6.1.1 -- possibly earlier -- I have been able to use group
names with embedded spaces, e.g., "Group 01.15", without problem.  The
interesting issue I found is that after moving a different NetWorker
server installation from Solaris to Win2k, I had to change all the group
names from something like "Group 01:15" to "Group 01.15", as Windows
cannot deal with a colon (:) in the name.

Yes, I'm pretty sure I used groups with spaces back in 5.x.

Same here, going back to NetWorker 4.x.  In fact our groups, pool names,
and label templates all had spaces in them from early on.

I was ticked when I upgraded to 6.x and discovered that label
templates could no longer have spaces in the names.  NetWorker can handle
old tapes with spaces in the name, but it won't let you label any new
tapes using that template.
