Ok, that confirms the full backup is there, and BackupPC_tarCreate creates the full tree. I suspect the problem is read-only directories. Smbclient creates the directory and sets the permissions. It then fails to write any files below that directory. The correct way, of course, is to set the directory read-only after the contents are written. I believe someone mentioned this on the list several weeks ago. If we can confirm that then this is a bug in smbclient tar restore.
