I want to back up my Windows /home userspace, which is served as part of a dfs volume (//server/dfs/home to be precise) from our Windows 2k3 ADS. Here's what I've done so far on the Amanda linux RH9 box:
1. Installed Samba 3.0 2. Installed MIT Kerberos 5 3. Setup Kerberos to point to the right realm 4. su to user 'amanda' 5. Ran 'kinit [EMAIL PROTECTED]' and authenticated successfully 6. Ran 'smbclient -k //server/dfs' and I get an smb> prompt without being asked for a password and I can see and browse the /home space. So far, so good. I then: 7. Setup /etc/amandapass with //server/dfs and the user%pass and domain 8. Added //server/dfs/home to the disklist 9. Ran amcheck, and it reported 0 problems. However, overnight it ran and failed with the following errors: /-- keep.cis.u //server/dfs/home lev 0 FAILED [no backup size line] sendbackup: start [keep.cis.uab.edu://server/dfs/home level 0] sendbackup: info BACKUP=/usr/bin/smbclient sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/bin/gzip -dc |/usr/bin/smbclient -f... - sendbackup: info COMPRESS_SUFFIX=.gz sendbackup: info end ? [2004/01/11 03:03:45, 0] libsmb/clientgen.c:cli_receive_smb(121) ? SMB Signature verification failed on incoming packet! ? [2004/01/11 03:03:45, 0] client/clitar.c:do_atar(698) ? Error reading file \home\faculty\joes\data\data20011126.zip : Server packet had invalid SMB signature! [snip] ...and basically, lots of errors that indicate that Kerberos authentication failed. I have two guesses: 1. smbclient was missing the -k to tell it to use kerberos auth (unfortunately, the smbclient command got truncated in the log so I can't tell for sure) 2. my kerberos ticket that I got during testing when I ran kinit may have expired Does anyone know what the cause could be and a possible fix? Is there a way to specify the flags that should be passed to smbclient?
