Sure it might work in Windows, but there are some serious screw-arounds to get it there. If you must, try and boot into Windows and copy a similar file there. The boot into Linux and look at the directory list, copy it from the vfat to a linux partition then back again to a different location. I'll bet Linux doesn't see the file as GB encoded filename. -- greg, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Novell's Directory Services is a competitive product to Microsoft's Active Directory in much the same way that the Saturn V is a competitive product to those dinky little model rockets that kids light off down at the playfield. -- Thane Walkup -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
