- Microsoft Windows NT Services for UNIX Add-On Pack
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When using the Services for UNIX Client for NFS component to create a file or
folder name that contains a colon on an NFS file share, you may receive an error
message. For example, if you attempt to create a folder named 7:5, you may
receive an error message similar to the following example:
MakeDir cannot create 7:5 : Not owner.
CAUSE
=====
When only one character precedes a colon in a file or folder name, Windows NT
interprets the file or folder name as a drive letter.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this issue, do not use file or folder names that have only one
character preceding a colon.
