No, I mean on my NT box (NT 4.0 Workstation SP 6a) I see :2f in the
filename served by the Netatalk/Samba Linux PC. Trying to open a file or
folder with somthing like this in it doesn't always crash my NT box;
most of the time it will just say that the file does not exist. Quite
often though, I get a blue screen of death, and I need to reset my NT
PC (no graceful recovery possible). I haven't been able to figure out
exactly under which circumstances the crash occurs but it always happens
when I try to access funny folder or filenames.
