Hi Ted, The '\*' is almost certainly being specified somewhere. Whether it is in the domain statement, objects field of the schedule, file specification from the command line, or client options set is immaterial.
On the 5.2 client that experiences the problem, what does the following command show? dsmc show domain Another way to verify would be to manually run the backup: dsmc i \\machinename\sharename Does the file space get updated on the server? Do the "incremental backup of volume" and "successful incremental backup" messages show the share with the '\*' appended at the end?

The command line is your friend. "Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
