Re: Samba restores don't work ...
>Using -d3 we have: > ># amrestore -ph /dev/autodrive_norewind ... Sorry. I should have been clearer. I only meant for you to take the smbclient command from the file, not the amrestore command. In particular, the -h flag also sent the Amanda header out to smbclient (normally, amrecover peels that off), which made the image incomprehensible. That's why the second attempt (nt5b) failed with the checksum error. I have no idea why nt4 is failing, although the obvious answer is that something is different about that share, which I'm afraid I can't help much with. You'll just have to stare at it very, very closely, I guess. The simpler thing to try next would be just a normal smbclient connection to that share (as user "backup") and see if you can do easy things. > tony John R.

It was very difficult to read your E-mail because of the quoting, so I can't give you exact things to try, but here's where I would start. Go to amrecover.debug and look at the smbclient command. What happens if you do something like this on the (sun26) client: rsh mt -f /dev/autodrive_norewind rewind rsh amrestore -hp /dev/autodrive_norewind \ sun26 //nt4/StarTeamVault | \ smbclient In particular, does smbclient whine about anything? What if you change -d0 to -d1 (or -d2, etc) on smbclient? You should see more debugging information. >tony John R. Jackson, Technical Software Specialist, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Samba restores don't work ...
Greetings; Backups are working great across a network of 16 different UNIX variants, and several NT servers. My problem is restoring to the NT servers. We are using Amanda 2.4.2p1, Samba 2.07 and gtar 1.13 on a Solaris 2.6 box. The Samba shares are accessible to the user "backup" who has "Full Control" on all directories and files within the share. >From Daily/disklist: sun26 //nt4/StarTeamVault windows-samba >From amanda.conf: define dumptype global { index yes } define dumptype windows-samba { global program "GNUTAR" comment "Critical Windows shares" options no-compress priority high } >From /etc/amandapass: //nt4/StarTeamVault backup ckup "Backups proceed uneventfully. Restoring using "setmode tar, works as expected, so the tape is certainly readable. The following is a transcript of amrecover using Samba: with the correct tape in the drive # >amrecover/ setdisk //nt4 StarTeamVault .../200 Disk set to //nt4 StarTeamVault. >amrecover cd Java///nt4/StarTeamVault Java >amrecover add Server-16-Feb-01-12-46-32.Log/Added /Java Server-16-Feb-01-12-46-32.Log >amrecover setmode smb SAMBA dumps will be extracted using smbclient >amrecover extract /Extracting files using tape drive /dev autodrive_norewind on host sun26.:The following tapes are needed Daily01 /Restoring files into directory /tmp amanda(,unless it is a Samba backup) that will go through to the SMB server ?Continue[ /Y]n: y Load tape Daily01 now?Continue[ /Y]n: y >amrecover quit# :From amidxtaped.debug ...:amrestore: 7 restoring sun26.__nt4_StarTeamVault.20010319.0(Error 32 )Broken pipe+ offset 0,32768 wrote 0:amrestore pipe reader has quit in middle of file.:amrestore, skipping ahead to start of next file please wait...:amidxtaped: amrestore terminated normally with status 2:Rewinding tape done:amidxtaped: pid 8305 finish time Tue Mar 20 19:11 09 2001 :From amrecover.debug ..."Started amidxtaped with arguments /6 -h -p /dev^autodrive_norewind sun26 ///nt4$StarTeamVault" 20010319 'Exec/ing /usr/local/samba/bin:smbclient with arguments smbclient///nt4 StarTeamVault X -U %backup backup -d0 -Tx -/./Java Server-16-Feb-01-12-46-32.Log:amrecover: pid 7587 finish time Tue Mar 20 19:11 22 2001 :From amindexd.debug ...
