I'm attempting to backup a windows box to a Linux box (Ubuntu 9.10) using rsync on the Linux box, and I get "file has vanished" errors for filenames with unusual characters in the filenames. I get a similar error ("no such file or directory") if I use "cp" instead of rsync. The source in a share on an English language Windows box.
One of the characters is the apostrophe character.
I've been playing around with various --iconv options but haven't been able to solve the problem. Suggestions?
it's probably not the real apostrophe; it's probably a "smart" single-quote character. – quack quixote – 2010-01-06T12:08:52.563
