I have BackupPC set up to backup my Fedora F10 box and my wife's Vista box to an external USB drive. I had everything working and then some time ago the backups stopped working for the Vista box and I'm just getting around to looking into it.
The error log shows: Running: /usr/bin/smbclient \\\\user-pc\\C\$ -U User -E -N -d 1 -c tarmode\ full -TcrX - <list of excluded files> full backup started for share C$ Xfer PIDs are now 9222,9221 tar_re_search set Anonymous login successful [ skipped 1 lines ] tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED .... So there is the problem...I think. The -N on the cmd line says (from the smbclient man page) "If specified, this parameter suppresses the normal password prompt from the client to the user. This is useful when accessing a service that does not require a password." so its logging in anonymously but I need to use a password so that User has sufficient privileges on the Vista box to execute the command. The password is correctly set in the SmbSharePasswd variable. Can someone enlighten me?
