Colons in filenames on NTFS in linux

Post by ZimbiX »

Hiya,
I'm running Zentyal (Ubuntu Server), and my download directory is on an NTFS volume. When SABnzbd tries to download NZBs where a filename has a colon in it, this results in "Disk error on creating file", e.g. for "The.Departed.2006.BluRay.1080p.x264.DTS-WiKi.cp(tt0407887)/120111-02:42:24.r03". How about automatically replacing this character on NTFS filesystems?
Thanks,
-Brendan
