Subject: RE: [BackupPC-users] Re: backing up c$ from XP


Hello,

The XP machine I am trying to backup IS on the company domain...
Nevertheless, I tried the blog instructions but to no avail.
The funny thing is the last time backuppc backed it up was back in May 05.
So, the command line I posted must have been working before then; what could
have stopped it working?
The following is what backuppc shows as XferLOG:

Running: /usr/bin/smbclient \\\\MyPC\\C\$ -U john -E -N -d 1 -c tarmode\
full -Tc - /Documents\ and\ Settings
Xfer PIDs are now 391,390
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
tarExtract: Done: 0 errors, 0 filesExist, 0 sizeExist, 0 sizeExistComp, 0
filesTotal, 0 sizeTotal
Got fatal error during xfer (No files dumped for share C$)
Backup aborted (No files dumped for share C$)

I have no idea what this means. The original posting was what I saw when
logged on at the server.

Any more ideas?

Khaled

I actually just had to hack my way through this problem on Saturday.. let
me guess, this is a Windows XP box that's part of a workgroup, not a
domain? If so, you'll need to disable 'Simple Sharing' to allow an
administrative user to connect to the C$ share. This is done by loading an
Explorer window, and go to Tools->Folder Options. Go to the 'View'
tab, and scroll all the way down. Uncheck the ‘Use Simple Sharing
(Recommended)’ option. I actually had problems finding this, so I ended
up posting it to my blog - post is at:
