I have noticed that trying to backup an NT Share through smbclient I recieve
the following errors on certain files:

? ERRDOS - ERRbadfile opening remote file
\users\mheffelfinger\VIFAN\Developing Products\XE-72,78,79 CM Metallized
WVTR\Sonoco
Trials\RE  Commande de produits Vifan lamin�s par extrusion .msg
(\users\mheffelfinger\VIFAN\Developing Products\XE-72,78,79 CM
Metallized WVTR\Trials\)

I thought it may have been the ","'s but there were many other examples like
below:

? ERRDOS - ERRbadfile opening remote file \AppsN\Lab\Control Documents\ISO
DOCUMENTS\Canadian specs\VSP\VSP04\VSP04 10
combin�CLH17-09-99.ppt (\AppsN\Lab\Control Documents\ISO DOCUMENTS\Canadian
specs\VSP\VSP04\)

All of the examples had the special character over the e
(combin�CLH17-09-99). Would this cause a problem with Amanda or with samba?
There are only about 65 or so of these errors out of about 70,000 files I am
backing up over the samba shares. Has anyone else experienced this problem
or know of a solution (Outside of changing our sister company's (French) OS
installs (Like that would be possible :-).
