Hello Soo Mo,

It would be better if you address your questions to the bacula-users list and 
if necessary copy me.  That way, you will probably get additional responses, 
even from Chinese who are already successfully using Bacula ...

Yes, nice.  I think it will work for you.

Yes, I believe I answered this in a bug report that you filed.  Perhaps you 
haven't seen it yet.

You need to find some way to encode the bacula-dir.conf file in UTF-8.  It is 
trivial to do on Linux systems, but I don't know how to do it on Win32 
systems.  Perhaps someone on this list can tell you.  

Once you have your Chinese filenames listed in the FileSet in UTF-8, Bacula 
*should* be able to back them up directly as you would like.

Note, one thing to try is to write the conf file in Unicode using Wordpad, 
which has Unicode output.  There is some code that a developer wrote in the 
Bacula input routines that recognizes Unicode.  However, he never documented 
it, so I have no idea how it works.

See above.

If anyone on this list knows of a Win32 tool that will write UTF-8 (not 
Unicode or UTF-16), please let me know.

Best regards,

Kern
