I do this manually: smbmount //Beverley/C /home/data pwd: "insert pwd" cp -ruv /home/samba/public /home/data smbumount /home/data
This lets me do the following: make a copy of all my samba shares on the server to a client named Beverley C drive. ruv does the following recursive (all subdirectories and subfolders) unchanged (only write over when newer) verbose pwd: "insert pwd" would be my password for that share (secret!!) the only problem is I can not get cp to do this "quietly or without input, even dropping the "v" makes me confirm each write. I need to unmount the share at end of backup. Any ideas of doing it another way much appreciated. I currently run a cron job, tar -cvfpP /dev/st0 /home/samba/public weekly to save all my samba server shares to tape. best, kevin brown -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
