My wife's Windows XP machine crashed and had to be restored. I'm trying to restore the backup and it isn't working. I think the problem is with my Samba setup. I was hoping someone here might be able to shed some light.
Here's the log from the restore: Contents of file /var/lib/backuppc/pc/arwen/RestoreLOG.3, modified 2007-03-19 13:40:33 Running: /usr/bin/smbclient \\\\arwen\\CDrive -U rick -E -N -d 1 -c tarmode\ full -Tx - Running: /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarCreate -h arwen -n 506 -s CDrive -t / Xfer PIDs are now 15907,15908 Domain=[ARWEN] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager] tarmode is now full, system, hidden, noreset, verbose restore directory \ restore directory \Documents and Settings\ restore directory \QUICKENW\ restore directory \QUICKENW\BACKUP\ restore tar file \QUICKENW\BILLMIND.EXE of size 36864 bytes This backup will fail because: abandoning restore abandoning restore Abandoning restore tarCreate: Unable to write to output file (Connection reset by peer) Restore failed: abandoning restore Here's the relevant info from /var/log/samba/log.arwen [2007/03/19 13:36:11, 0] lib/util_sock.c:write_data(557) write_data: write failure in writing to client 0.0.0.0.

(Connection reset by peer) Any advice on where to look on either the XP machine or the server (Ubuntu Dapper)? As an alternative, I've tried downloading a zip file of the restore, but that never seems to work on the windows machine. I'm downloading one now from the server TO the server, it's 1.2GB so far and it's not done yet, I hope that it will fit on a DVD. -- Rick DeNatale ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
