Hello, Has anyone else run into the problem where smbclient only processes the commands before a space in the "command string" (-c) field but not the rest? My NON-WORKING example: # smbclient '\\server\Documents' -d 0 -U abackup -E -c 'archive 1;recurse;du' Password: Archive level is 0 It processed the "archive" (returning what archive level it's at currently), not the "archive 0", let alone the "recurse;du" But the following works: # smbclient '\\server\Documents' -d 0 -U abackup -E -c "archive;recurse;du" Password: Archive level is 0 38107 blocks of size 1048576. 8475 blocks available Total number of bytes: 5091539134 In this case it told us the "current archive level," and did the "recurse;du" arguments. All because the space wasn't in there. The following works, up till the space, as well, proving that it's the space causing the problem: # smbclient '\\server\Documents' -d 0 -U abackup -E -c "ls;archive 1;recurse;du" Password: .
