Re: [BackupPC-users] XP Client setup problem
So, Do people seem to think that Samba (i.e. Windows Shares) is the way to go? I've been using RSync (excluding .EXE, .DLL, etc) .. which seems to make the pools smaller (this isn't a full backup -- but rather a "Oh, crap, the HD failed and I need the files on the computer")..

Hello Eric, If I recall correctly, you need to open up the configuration panel for Explorer and make sure that option 'Enable Simple Sharing' is turned off. After that, make sure that the folder you want to back up is shared correctly. -- Paul Mantz http://www.mcpantz.org BackupPC - Network Backup with De-Duplication http://www.backuppc.com Zmanda - Open source backup and recovery http://www.zmanda.com/ - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ ___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
[BackupPC-users] XP Client setup problem
I have set up XP clients before with great trouble. It was over a year ago. I added a new computer and copied a current clients config, changed the the client specific settings and I get errors. I changed the share to C$ and get the No files dumped for share C$ error message. I believe that it is a problem on the new client side since the other XP clients are backing up just fine. I have set up a user on the new client and added them to the "Backup Operators" group. I still have the same error. Any help would be appreciated. - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ ___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
