Re: Problem file

Hi John,

This is most likely caused by whatever filesystem driver you're using to
mount NTFS.

Unison does not create files like this. The error "Erreur d'entrée/sortie"
(which I'm assuming is EIO) also directly points to the filesystem
driver/FUSE/kernel/disk, not a problem with Unison.

I'm sorry, I can't be more helpful as I don't know much about mounting NTFS
under Linux.
