I have successfully backed up my localhost machine that BackupPC is installed on so I know that it is working. I cannot connect to an XP machine using Samba as transfer method. I have searched and searched and cannot find what I need.

Using the following commands in a terminal su'd as backuppc the following commands work or don't work:
*Works:*
/usr/bin/smbclient -L \\\\gandolf\\ -U backuppc
This produces a list of shares on the XP machine gandolf.

*Also Works:*
/usr/bin/smbclient \\\\gandolf\\Eric -U backuppc
This connect ti the share Eric on the XP machine gandolf.

*But does not work (frustrated Grrrrr):*
/usr/bin/smbclient \\\\gandolf\\C/$ -U backuppc
Gives me "NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME"

/usr/bin/smbclient \\\\gandolf\\C\$ -U backuppc
Gives me "NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED"

How to fix?

Thanks,
Eric
