Hi all,
Situation:
We use smbtar for backups, incrementals done using -N <last date file>,
and this has worked well with samba 2.2.x
After upgrading to 3.0b3, using the -N (newer) option to smbtar causes a
bad interaction with smbclient.
Eg,:
# smbtar -s PC -x Share -u User -p Pwd -d / -t - -N last-backup -v
gives (if you print out the eval at the end of smbtar script):
eval /usr/bin/smbclient '\\PC\Share' 'Pwd' -U 'User' -E -N -d 2 -D '/'
-c 'tarmode full' -TcN last-backup - ${1+"$@"}
giving:

Error setting newer-than time

[-i|--scope SCOPE] [-U|--user USERNAME] [-N|--no-pass]

[-A|--authentication-file FILE] service <password>
Removing the -TcN <file> and replacing it with -Tc fixed this gotcha.
Cheers,
Mark
