It seems that if I use WinRAR the files are shown correctly.

with 7-zip it is not.

And winrar opens the .tar.gz at once, 7zip has to extract the gz, then the tar.


do I have to use winrar, or is there a fix for 7zip?

I started using the archive function now.
The hosts that I archived have a lot of folders/files with special characters like "á ã ç ô ó" and if I extract the tar.gz or tar.bz2 on windows it becomes all messed up...
An example is a folder called "Cópia" becomes "C¾pia"
I was about to give up on this function, and then i remember to tar xvzf the archive in linux. then, from the samba share when i extracted it, i can see the names correctly..

Is there any explanation for this ? can I fix it so I could extract it correctly on windows?
I use 7-zip on windows.
And I have a lot of trouble to put char codes working correctly on the backuppc machine.

Are you using 3.0.0beta?  In 3.x, $Conf{ClientCharset} specifies the
client's charset encoding.  BackupPC_tarCreate converts all the file
names back to that encoding, plus it supports a "-e charset" option
that allows you to override the charset encoding.
