Re: [BackupPC-users] XP Client setup problem

2008-11-17 Thread Rob Poe
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.

[BackupPC-users] XP Client setup problem

2008-11-16 Thread Eric Snyder
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.
