I made very quick test, using bacula 2.2.4 server on FC6, and 2.2.4 client
on Finnish Windows Vista Business.

Shortly:
I completely agree with the original posting. All files are restored
properly (at least the paths and the file names and the file contents are
ok), but filenames with umlauts (ä, ö, å, ü) result with similar "cannot
change permissions" error messages during restore.

I didn't have time to investigate, if there are some file properties that 
are not restored correctly. And I need to admit, that my knowledge about 
Windows file system doesn't go much further but seeing the file names and 
the data inside -I've never cared so much about file ownerships etc in 
Windows.

Timo
