Addition...
I can connect to a specific share (Eric) on gandolf like this:
/usr/bin/smbclient \\\\gandolf\\Eric -U backuppc
When I list the shares on gandolf by using
/usr/bin/smbclient -Lgandolf -U backuppc
both Eric and C$ show up.
It seems that when I try to connect to C$ that is when I run into the
problem.
What I am trying to do is to be able to add a host nae to the hosts file
and have BackupPC backup everything that is shared on that Windows host
without specifically calling out each share in the config file for that
host. Possible?

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
