Yes, all non-empty files should be pooled (including hard links, soft
links, char/block special files and attribute files).

Smbclient version is 3.4.7. The user and I will not again be in the office
at the same time until Tuesday, but I believe the share is inaccessible
(invisible, even) from other Windows machines. I should mention that other
Windows 7 machines are working smoothly with BackupPC. I think it is

At least all files beneath the share level that is...
My backup system is down so I can't check at the host level.

I'm trying to run backuppc on a debian-based plugcomputer.

All the transfer methods (smb, rsync, tar) allow you to specify which
folders you wish to back up.
The way to achieve what you want is to create two 'hosts' to be backed
up, say myserver1 and myserver2 for the server myserver. For each one
set up for just one of the two folders, with the schedulin
