Yep, i've set up several network shares on the PC. The two other shares in directories other than "Documents and Settings" (eg one of the other dirs is "C:\transfer") with no spaces in their name work just fine - backuppc has no issue with them. However, this one mount under "Documents and Settings" is the one giving me issues. > What version of Windows is this? I think 'Home' versions of Windows don't > have the c$ share but I don't remember. (I set up rsyncd unless it doesn't > work in that instance, which is pretty rare.) It's Win XP Professional with SP3. (as a side note, if i just do "c$" as the directory, backuppc seems to work fine - i let it go for 10 minutes before cancelling the request, i don't know if it did anything in "Documents and Settings"). > > If you go to another computer and go Start -> Run -> > '\\computer.example.com\sharename' (obviously substiute your own values > here) can you get access to it? > Yes, both the shares with no spaces and the share with the space in the name are perfectly accessible from any other windows machine on this network. I've tried both the share "name" (ie. "Downloads" - the name i set in "Sharing" tab) and the full path (ie. "Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\Downloads") in the <hostname>.pl file. Both give me the same result - no luck. Which should i be using? Thanks, Craig. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
