An example filename (using octal escapes) would be umlauts_are_\366\344\374 My question: when I get this string back from readdir, what is this encoding? None? ANSI wide char? UTF8? NetWorker is performing some conversions that are inappropriate, but I need to know what is appropriate in order to fix them...
