Strange. BackupPC_tarExtract is getting confused by the tar file generated by smbclient. What's your version of smbclient? The only thing that comes to mind is whether your language setting on your server are causing perl 5.8.7 to use a different character encoding. What is your LANG environment variable set to? Failing that, the next step is to email me (off list) the output from this command (compressed with gzip or bzip2 is fine): /usr/local/samba/bin/smbclient \\\\lap2\\MyDir -U administrator -E -N -d 1 -c tarmode\ full -TcrX - /My\ Pictures Be warned that it will contain your 7 files. If you are concerned about confidentiality, can you create a test case that fails with dummy files?
