Yes there were some changes to smbclient which caused failures with backuppc.
There are patches for most distros now but it has never worked reliably for
me since samba was changed and so I started using rsync on windows.
Whilst it is annoying having to install an rsync
separately and open anothe
The -h host is the hostname of the client that has been backed up as if there
are multiple backups of hosts with the same file it
needs to specify which one.
So for example say you want to pull back share of /etc from a host I suspect
you're looking to do something alone the lines of:
/usr/sha
I don't use xenserver but my generic advice as a strategy would be to backup
the contents of the VMs rather than the raw virtual disks.
Effetively treating the guests as if they were physical systems. The raw
virtual disk files will be large but also non-unique so will cost a lot more
in storage
promising). Hopefully this will help any others with the
same issue.

By it's very nature, backup tends to be a conservative entity. Whilst I'm no

It might be possible to use an sftp to ftp bridge, something like:
