Why does the driver allow special characters in the filenames?
NTFS supports several filename namespaces at the same time: DOS, Win32 and
POSIX. While the NTFS-3G driver handles all of them, it always creates new
files in the POSIX namespace for maximum portability and interoperability
reasons. This means that filenames are case sensitive and all characters are
allowed except '/' and '\0'. This is perfectly legal on Windows, though some
application may get confused. If you find so then please report it to the
developer of the relevant Windows software.
Workaround: If case insensitivity handling and/or restriction of
special character usage is desirable then you may export the NTFS volume
via Samba which supports this functionality the same way as it does for
other POSIX file systems.
Status: Not NTFS-3G problem.
