Yes, Samba doesn't support all features that are supported by Unix- style file systems. Things like sockets, hardlinks and symlinks won't work for instance. Copying your BackupPC pool to a Samba share isn't really going to work. You can create tar archives for backups and put those on a Samba share though.
