Hello Daniel!

IMHO, you should avoid file names that are illegal in one of the OSs you have to use like the plague ...

DIN ISO 8601:2006 allows as "Basisformat" YYYYMMDDThhmmss (or for an UTC timestamp: YYYYMMDDThhmmssZ)
I would recommend to switch to that time stamp format (it is the same ISO, after all :-) and have identical (and valid) names on all systems.
