It looks that the "UTF-8 Cygwin dll" would solve the issue? http://www.okisoft.co.jp/esc/utf8-cygwin/ I think I used it for some time, and didn't have these "file has vanished" problems. I wonder if it's better to use with BackupPC than the original Cygwin dll (if one uses multiple international character in filenames)? -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
