I believe that the trouble is in mapping some of the characters in the file name to the ANSI code page in which Windows is running (notice the '?' character in the file name). Files whose names contain characters that are not in the ANSI code page can't be backed up by pre-TSM 4.2 software. This is discussed in the TSM Windows client manual "Using the Backup-Archive Client", chapter 1, section "Migrating to the Unicode-Enabled Client".
TSM 4.2 includes Unicode support. You must have the 4.2 client AND server in order to use this support.
