Note that your problem starts here -- you probably don't want an anonymous login, but a credentialed login. There can be any number of reasons why this happens; from using simple file sharing, to using a version of smbclient where the -N switch implies an anonymous login. You'll want to start by getting that command line from the logs and testing it against your Windows setup outside BackupPC, and correct whichever one is causing the issue. > tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED This is related to the anonymous login. > end qoute: > > I thought the problem might be the firewall on the Windows machine, so > I > disabled it, (FWIW, the firewall is the one bundled with the Macafee > Security > Suite) but I still get the same errors. The McAfee firewall is indeed problematic, and I wouldn't recommend using it, but I'm not aware of it being capable of taking a credentialed login and changing it to an anonymous one. It's more prone to things like mysterious timeouts and connections that terminate for no particular reason. It can be perfectly serviceable if it's not particularly stressed. > My questions: > 1.
