bad call. i NEVER backup unix via smb. go and restore from that backup and
look at your unix permissions. unless you tar first, perms are destroyed by
smb.
i use a backup server running linux. the nt boxes can dump to it using smb,
the unix boxes use nfs v3, and the backup server takes care of the rest.
this good cause it gives me a running machine, a harddrive backup, and a tape
backup.... all with the correct full unix perms.

The NT server is running the Backup Exec. The Linux server backs up along
with everything else.
