Kern, thanks for your help. I changed the systems default locale to de_DE.UTF-8 and rebootet the system. Then I did another full dump of the Windows client -- same effects as before. I am using a mysql database. What I wonder about: If the problem was on the servers side, e.g. wrong pathnames in the database, I would expect problems while restoring the files. But all my files and directories are created correctly. Just setting the file permissions causes the errors ... -- 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.
