Hi, I have spent a frustrating afternoon trying to get backuppc to backup a windows XP home system I have.
I was getting NT access denied errors, as I'm sure you know about. I booted into safe mode, and changed the file permissions to allow everyone access to the offending dirs (/windows, /documents and settings, and /program files). Smbclient will now let me use those dirs from the command line. When I ask backuppc to do its thing, I get the following output: Contents of file /var/lib/backuppc/pc/blackbox/XferLOG.bad.z, modified 2007-07-22 15:27:26 (Extracting only Errors) Running: /usr/bin/smbclient \\\\blackbox\\c -I 192.168.0.65 -U -E -N -d 1 -c tarmode\ full -Tc - Xfer PIDs are now 6176,6175 [ skipped 1 lines ] tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED [ skipped 1 lines ] tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED tarExtract: Done: 0 errors, 0 filesExist, 0 sizeExist, 0 sizeExistComp, 0 filesTotal, 0 sizeTotal Got fatal error during xfer (No files dumped for share c) Backup aborted (No files dumped for share c) so I ssh'd into the backuppc as user 'backuppc' and trued the above command. Up scrolls screen after screen of data. I assume this is a success. If it is a failure, then how do I troubleshoot this? If it is a success, then why am I getting the backuppc error? Note: I'm using version 2.1.2pl1 from the ubuntu repos. I would be glad to update if this would help.
