[BackupPC-users] Moving /var/lib/backuppc to a RAID array

2006-07-18 Thread Ashley Shaw








Hi there fellow Backuppc Users



I have been working with backuppc for about 1 year now and I
really like the application! It is incredible! Take that veritas! ;-)



I just setup a new dapper-drake server with backuppc. I have
a large software RAID5 array of 4 x 250Gb disks mounted at /data. I would like
to redirect /var/lib/backuppc to /data/backuppc. My reason for this is that my
primary drive array used for / is setup with 2 x 160Gb drives in Mirror and the
Backuppc pool will fill up this Mirrored Array. 



I have tried creating a symlink from /var/lib/backuppc to
/data/backuppc after moving the /var/lib/backuppc folder to /data, but I broke
backuppc. Now backuppc tells me Error: Unable to connect to BackupPC
server. Whooops! How can I go about moving the pool. I cant seem
to find any answers in the documentation, but I might just be blind?!





Please could anybody send some suggestions?!



Thanking you in advance!

[BackupPC-users] NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE after samba update

2006-07-18 Thread Ryan Ross
Over the weekend smbclient updated to 3.0.23 on my Fedora Core 4 system. Since 
that time, I have not been able to backup our Windows server. I have not 
changed the config.pl at all, and it has been working fine for months. Ever 
since that samba update however, I get this message:

Running: /usr/bin/smbclient dc1\\G -U ece -E -N -d 1 -c tarmode\ 
full -TcN /usr/local/backuppc/data/pc/dc1/timeStamp.level0 -
Xfer PIDs are now 7213,7212
[ skipped 1 lines ]
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
tarExtract: Done: 0 errors, 0 filesExist, 0 sizeExist, 0 sizeExistComp, 0 
filesTotal, 0 sizeTotal
Got fatal error during xfer (session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE)
Backup aborted (session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE)

Any ideas?

Smbclient uses some settings from /etc/samba/smb.conf - check to see
if that changed during your update.  Also if you use smbclient
manually to connect to the share you might get a better error message.

 Minor update.  Reading code shows that BackupPC does indeed set the 
 environment variable PASSWD.
 
 So, if the samba docs have not changed, does that mean the actual 
 running code has not changed?  I'm not convinced, but I have no data at 
 this point.  Looking over the 3.0.23 release notes, there are MANY 
 changes.  Side effects are perhaps inevitable.
 
 Why it works for a BackupPC full backup, even from the web interface, 
 and not for an incremental, even from the command line, is also beyond 
 me.  For this reason, I did not create a new bug with the Samba team.
 
 Adding '-v' to the args stack for Backuppc_Dump did not help.  This is 
 happening inside Samba.  It looks to be totally outside BackupPC...but 
 I'm stumped as to how a full backup would work.
 
 But - I can mount one of these shares in linux, and I can manually log 
 on using  smbclient at the command line.  Sigh! The mystery deepens.

Is  there some subtle difference in your $Conf{SmbClientFullCmd} and
$Conf{SmbClientIncrCmd} entries?  Can you execute something
resembling the expanded incremental command manually with
smbclient?

I don't think so. Nils is a pretty common name in Scandinavia  
(although I'm not from Scandinavia).
