Has long You don't use non-ASCII characters in filenames! At least
in case of Windows 2000 and Windows XP - could be fixed with
service packs. Some WinXP Unicode/Win98 codepage problems.
Seems that WinXP don't transfers codepage into Unicode names
and afterward couldn't read file. Shared files are accessible from Win98
computer.
