Windows NT File Manager: Services for Macintosh Concerns
 
 - Windows NT Services for Macintosh maps the Macintosh Character Set
   to UNICODE when creating files and directories on a Windows NT file
   system (NTFS) server. The Windows NT File Manager is ANSI, so it
   cannot access directories containing UNICODE characters that are not
   available in ANSI. If you try to access one of these directories in
   File Manager, the search will typically jump to the root of the
   current drive.
 
 - The Win32 APIs support a maximum path length of 260 characters.
   Windows NT Services for Macintosh allows the creation of paths beyond
   260 characters but you cannot access them from the Windows NT File
   Manager.
