CLcd> Stefan, thanks for your ongoing support. I believe your mothertongue CLcd> is German as well but I will go on writing in English so everybody CLcd> can participate So it is, I am from Austria. CLcd> % What do your logfiles tell you when you try this? Set loglevel to 2 CLcd> % and look that up. CLcd> Good idea. I did not know that there are any logfiles. CLcd> Can you give me a hint how to switch them on or switch CLcd> them to level 2? Thanks. Look into your smb.conf. Look for the option log level = Set it to log level = 2 if it ain´t that already. Also look for log file = to find out where the log files are written to. Usually this is something like /var/log/samba/log.smbd or /var/log/samba/<clientname>. --- Reading those files will tell us much more about what´s going on. CLcd> % Off topic: Why not use Linux w/ Samba as backup-server? CLcd> Yippie. I was wondering how long it might take before this question CLcd> will come up. Yes, I did. And: the other way around may work (see a CLcd> little later in that mail). CLcd> BUT: I HAVE TO USE WINDOWS. (to many arguments in this company to tell). Acknowledged for now. CLcd> % Can you create a db-backup-file on a local partition of that machine? CLcd> Not yet anymore. The db exceeded the 50 % limit of the harddrive 2 weeks CLcd> ago. Right now the only backup I can do is on tape. This is not CLcd> working as well; but that's a different story. But before that date CLcd> (it was shortly after installation of the db) we made a backup on CLcd> harddrive. That worked out fine. With samba I've created a share on CLcd> LINUX to access the backup's folder and we were able to squeeze the CLcd> 55 GB out of the box. But that option is not available to me anymore. Can you use a NFS-share to dump your db to? Just to verify NOW. btw, which part of the process gives you the "filesize exceeded"? And how is the SAP-backup done exactly? I assume it is using some kind of tar... Which version of tar are you using? Upgrade to the latest (or some newer one) and try again. CLcd> Stefan, do you think there may be a "switch" in the kernel, or CLcd> something with my GLIBC? I've found some people telling others to CLcd> create a new kernel with a new GLIBC?!?! I dont know if that really CLcd> makes sense. In my eyes I would have made more sense to choose a CLcd> newer version of SAMBA. I don´t KNOW this exactly but your kernel seems to be young enough to support that. Could be that your ext2-subsystem is too old to support. Please try logging first, report to the list. If this doesn´t lead to something useful, we can trace the ext-path off-list. CLcd> I'm trying to keep my head up. With Linux books .... ;-) that´s the way to learn. Stefan G.
