This morning I started to build a test environment. I created 2 directories named "Neuer Ordner" and "Neuer Ördner". Then I changed the permissions of both directories (added some rights for a new user). Next I created a file named "Umlauteüöä.txt". I did a backup and a restore of these new dirs and the file. Everything is created successfull and even the directory permissions are correct -- although I got the following error: 13-Apr 08:57 hisservld-fd: RestoreFiles.2007-04-13_08.55.57 Warning: Cannot change permissions of C:/temp/bacula/C/Dokumente und Einstellungen/adminKO/Eigene Dateien/Neuer Ã�rdner: ERR=No such file or directory So everything seems to work OK. But I wonder, why bacula complains about the permission change. For the records: Starting the restore on the windows client shows correct german umlauts in the pathnames in bconsole. -- Regards Christoph ________________________________________________________________________ Christoph Litauer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Uni Koblenz, Computing Center, http://www.uni-koblenz.de/~litauer Postfach 201602, 56016 Koblenz Fon: +49 261 287-1311, Fax: -100 1311 PGP-Fingerprint: F39C E314 2650 650D 8092 9514 3A56 FBD8 79E3 27B2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
