I saw a similar posting to the archive digest back in May, but did not
see/find a follow up.
I'm able to restore an entire share or a single file, but I'm not able
to
restore a directory tree. I've tried smbtar, command line tar options to
smbclient, and smbclient interactively. Each produces the same results.
$ smbtar -s server -u user -p password -x share -t file.tar -r -v <dir>
total of 0 tar files restored to share
$ smbclient \\\\server\\share -U user%password -N -Tx file.tar <dir>
total of 0 tar files restored to share
$ smbclient \\\\server\\share -U user%password -N
smb: \> tar x file.tar <dir>
total of 0 tar files restored to share
Omitting <dir> will restore the entire share. Using
<dir>/<file> will
restore the single file.
Using the I option instead of <dir> also produces the same results. Use
of wildcards (/* or /*.*) doesn't help either.
Any help/suggestions/recommendations would be greatly appreciated!!!
