shouldn't that lead to a different error? As I read the source, "no files dumped for share" is produced for a dump where no other error was detected, yet no files were read - perhaps due to insufficient permissions to access any files (oh, and it's "*Got* fatal error ...", so we know it's only an approximation of the actual error message ;-). More context from the XferLOG would probably help in determining the actual problem. Are there error messages which BackupPC couldn't interpret leading up to the "no files dumped ..."? Have you tried running the exact same command BackupPC is trying from the command line? Can you connect to the client machine with 'smbclient' (something like 'smbclient //host/C\$ -U backup-user', if 'backup-user' is what BackupPC is using; see the man page for details) and list the contents of the share?
